Classic example of over engineering of a simple utility product...

No, over pricing.

Buy substandard products and keep promoting India as poor and under developed
I thought it was going to have GPS and speed info, etc, on the visor. Rs 13000 for a pair of built in head phones and BT connectivity is a bit too much.
But is it sturdy enough to save heads
Waste of money. Safest CARBON FIBRE helmet under this price AT THE END. 1. It is shocking that at 15000, it comes with micrometric quich release buckles!😮 2. To get DOT certification, manufacturers have to test the helmet themselves based on the current DOT regimes. And they can say it is DOT certified. My suggestion: Compromise on the gimmickry features, and instead buy a carbon fibre shell helmet at that price that will give much better protection with double D ring fasteners. Talking about Axor Apex Carbon (and still save ₹3000-4000) or its cousin.

Exactly, if I'm to spend such an amount I'd rather buy an AGV or HJC. Atleast I'll know that all my cash is going into safety (and a lill after brand value.)
Costly... Not worth the money
How to order helement
It looks good. What are the sizes(mm) available?

Hi. Ather has told us the Halo series will be available in multiple sizes. The pre-production unit I tried out was an XL.
Overpriced 7-8k would be a perfect price for what it is providing in Indian market
How do you enjoy music ...goddamn designs....while there is a life threat outside on these damn roads .....lol

True. Distraction is huge a risk on the road.
6-9 K range could be perfect for an introductory experience. For indian bikers initially it would be expensive.
Only if ece 22.06 compliant

Only DOT and ISI compliant.
This must accomodate in my Ola S1 pro
Worth the money ❤
Should have been ECE certified for the price
Buy a normal helmet isi marked cost 2100 max then buy Bluetooth mic and speakers for helmets from amazon cost 3000 Total investment 5100 only then why this helmet ?
Beautiful helmet. It provides safety, entertainment and connectivity to riders where they are totally helpless. Price equivalent to a basic 5G smartphone, it will be staying longer than them with the riders.
Cool features also will be add like AC😅,, THAT'S perfect combination at this price
I closed the video after price reveal
Bhayi...15000 me to Agu ka helmet aajaye GA 😅
Worts Godamn Review Video.
My LS2 FF800 Storm II is a lot safer than these and is more affordable than this.😅

Helmet cost 2000 + bluetooth device 1500 total 3500, no need to spend 13000

This helmet's updated price is 2999rs no need to spend 3500rs
ISI is BIS, Bureau of Indian Standards, same symbol but different name
And how safe is the product? for this price one can easily get much safer helmets. Also bruh "DOT" is a joke, come on!

Hey, @YashAtishay! We cannot comment on the helmet as what we sampled at the event was a pre-production unit, but we will conduct a detailed review once we have the production version with us. As far as certification goes, Ather says it decided against ECE certification as doing so would have resulted in the helmet shell becoming even bigger.

@@carandbike so let's make am unsafe safety product so that it can be smaller? sounds like some small brain move

DOT standard and a good brand audio...13k seems reasonable
They just added bluetooth speakers to a helmet and are calling it a smart helmet.. what rubbish.
