@@TheLoamWolfjust fyi turbine 360 has been tested to be inferior to mips, technology tested well below

I love my dainese linea 01, I want to get. A second helmet and try the brand new Limar Livigno full face

I am 56cm head size, so right on the boarder of S/M, which would you suggest? thanks, great video!

Leatt produces some seriously good-quality gear, as opposed to POC, which is just expensive.

@@chefgav1 Well i guess, neither mips or the turbine are perfect with head crashes. 10% claim for reduction of concussion is still quite low for the extra pricing. but then again better than nothing. i feel that even if there is no mips or turbine, wearing a helmet still helps. rather a concussion than a cracked head.

@@zefe3886 MIPS takes the top 10 spots. Depends on helmet. The Scott Spunto had a side 16% reduction concussion risk or the Rudy Project Racemaster had a 74% reduction compared to non mips.Lazer Z1 was 50%.. Not sure where 10% came from.MIPS has proven time and time again to be superior to others. Most embarrassing by far is the wavecell which claimed to be 200times better than MIPS and even won TIME safety invention of the year.Bontrager talked up the technology to be the biggest invention in helmet safety ever but ended up being an embarrassing flop.The Bontrager Rally WaveCel was sent off to testing with the exact same helmet but in MIPS but the MIPS version dominated the wavecell in every metric to which then caused Bontrager to remove the rally mips model very quickly.

That strap seem rather inconvenient, although I have zero experience with full face helmets. Been on market for one though. Otherwise great looking helmet. Great review!

Thanks for sharing. We don't mind this style closure, but it's not the fastest, however it is likely the most secure.

D-ring chin straps are pretty standard for DH and MOTO helmets. Typically far more secure than a snap-style strap.

Get a D-ring strap helmet. They are just better and you will learn how to use it in no time. Becomes 2nd nature and easy.

Some of the older Leatt Helmets had a "pointy" or too "rounded" of a chin which make action cam chin mount not an option. How is it on this one?

How does it compare to a Giro switchblade regarding ventilation and drying speed?

Is the hardware that holds the the chinstrap stainless steel? I don’t mean the double D closure, I mean what is riveted to the inside of the helmet. I find it is not stainless on many helmets and rusting a lot from salty sweat.

Would you say its more protective then the Gravity 4.0? I have a 4.0 now and I'm looking for more of a true DH helmet for park days, looking at the Gravity 6.0 and 100% Aircraft 2. I know you can't safety test the helmets, but still appreciate your opinion. Love your reviews, thanks!

@TheLoamWolf

6 ай бұрын

The Gravity 4.0 and Gravity 6.0 are very much the same helmets. The only real difference being the weight due to the different shell materials. If you don't absolutely need to replace the 4.0, upgrading isnt necessary. Now if you had the Enduro 4.0, then absolutely an upgrade would be warranted. That said, between the Gravity 6.0 and Aircraft 2, Gravity 6.0 all day...even though the aircraft 2 helmets have a much more refined look and better paint jobs. From a safety standpoint, the Leatt helmet is a night and day better option.

Still haven’t seen you look at the Fly Werx R. Arguably one of, if not THE safest helmet on tue market with their RHEON protection. Would love to hear your thoughts on it Vs this current Leatt

It’s been a while since we’ve ridden one. Fly seems to make very little effort into the bike space and to be honest, we even forget about the brand as an option until someone mentions them. We’ll try to get one and see how it goes.

Ya. They definitely focus their marketing efforts into moto. I have a couple pairs of their pants and shorts, as well as a Werx R. Pants fit great, as do their shorts. One pair has a boa which works awesome. I can’t say enough good things about my experiences with the Werx R. I also have a 6D ATR2 for my moto helmet. This Werx R fits so good, good goggle opening (fits 100% Armega’s or Scott Prospect’s great) and that Rheon…😮‍💨 I’ve had a few concussions, sadly, and I hit my head in my first Werx R quite hard. The second my head hit the ground I was instantly angry as I knew I hit it hard enough to concuss myself. 🤬 I got up and the rest of the group slowly caught up. I waited probably 10 mins and no concussion symptoms. No seeing stars, no light headedness, nothing. I continued riding that day symptom free and clear headed. Very, very impressed with the Rheon.

Dainese linea 01 works very well for this I'm sure the brand new Limar Livigno will be also Both are DH rated

Website says: Weight: Estimated from 750 ± 50g (1.65 lbs) Which would be significantly lighter than the 972 you quoted, or any other downhill helmet..

@TheLoamWolf

That could be true for a size small. We weighed our Large helmet and it weighs right around 972 grams. Most brands only include weights of their size smalls / mediums depending on the product.

How is this helmet compare to Kali Protective new DH helmet which has more vents?

Kali Invader DH is also lighter at 750 grams Dainese linea 01 and Limar Livigno are both Dh rated and under 600 grams Both these have more vents than the Kali Invader DH

Today, I tried the iXS Trigger and Leatt 6.0 in a store here in Germany, and both FF helmets are definitely top-notch, but for me the weight of the helmet decides and the iXS Trigger is definitely the winner because the size M weighs 590 g, which is incomparable to the Leatt 6.0, which is at least 300 g more, which is a lot when you wear the helmet all day, and the iXS Trigger is made for even better ventilation, which is also important in spring and summer. iXS Trigger it costs 290 euros here in Germany, but it is currently on sale for 159 euros, which is another reason to buy that FF helmet 😊

@TheLoamWolf

Thanks for sharing. The iXS Trigger is a helmet we have reviewed and enjoy a bit, however we would not put these two helmets in the same category at all. Leatt has other helmets that are much closer to the Trigger in terms of weight and level of protection. In our opinion, the Trigger is a great enduro, pedal-friendly full face but if we were riding a downhill or enduro bike and doing proper DH laps, we would much rather have this as it's a full-on DH helmet. Thanks again for writing in! We're happy to hear you found a helmet that fits you and you like, especially on sale! NICE!

Is it possible to put the mask just under the visor?

The Troy Lee are 70% off almost everywhere currently, it's hard to beat I ordered a very funky GP and se4 composite for the price of one helmet 🎉

I don't know where you get those prices from in America or Canada, in Europe that helmet costs 240 EUR 😂, I have not yet seen a helmet that costs even one of the latest and best above 350 EUR 😮
