Gnasher2 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Just picked up on another post about validity of crash helmets from 2010 forward. I am just about to buy a helmet for next season but don't want it to last for only one year. 😳 The helmet I am looking at (Bell GT 5 Sport) has Snell 2005 & FIA 8858.  Any good and will it last me more than a year?

Area Representative Richard Price Posted November 15, 2008 Area Representative Share Posted November 15, 2008 Any good and will it last me more than a year? Yes, those standards will be fine. I understand that BS6658-85 type A helmets will not be allowed after Jan 1st 2010.

Gnasher2 Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 Have you seen the price changes on Helmets? *eek*  Two price increases since my Demon Tweeks catalogue came through the post and the Bell I had my eye on has gone up from £280 to £355 *eek* All blamed on the Euro rate change. Anybody know of a cheaper way into an FIA approved lid 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnasher2 Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 SWMBO has informed me that "you only get one head so you better buy the good one"  Is this love? 🥰 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
