Description of Daytona Helmets: Carbon Fiber 100% DOT-Approved Motorcycle Half Helmet - Skull Cap Series

IMPORTANT SIZING NOTE: Our helmets are made for your comfort and protection. The correct fit may feel snug – they are supposed to fit comfortably yet tightly for your protection. Please see the SIZING CHART below to make sure you are purchasing the best size! Contact us if there are any sizing questions. PROTECT YOUR BRAIN! The fact that this helmet meets and exceeds D.O.T. Safety Standards FMVSS 218 means you and your loved ones have HEAD PROTECTION in case of an accident. Protecting your brain is essential. FOR SMALL & BIG HEADS - If you've been searching for a half-helmet with a wide range of sizes, then your search is over! We designed this DOT 1/2 Shell helmet while keeping in mind those with small or large head sizes. BUY TRUE D.O.T. ONLY! Many helmets that claim to be approved by the Department of Transportation are not actually DOT certified — ours are! This model is the smallest LOW-PROFILE DOT half helmet in the world to pass DOT certified lab tests. NO PINCHING! The last thing you want to feel at higher speeds is a dig caused by an uncomfortable and narrow chin strap that pinches or painfully pulls your hair. That's distracting and dangerous! The position of our chin strap can be adjusted forward or backward to prevent pinching, and will protect the beard of those that have cared to grow one. All it takes is a single motion of the finger to release our custom quick release lock. Carbon Fiber.

Carbon fiber is NOT lighter.

Ordered 4x in Carbon and their helmet in Flat Black. Carbon fiber costs $100 more to be lighter, right? No, it's just over an ounce heavier!

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Available for exchange

You don't get what you order.

Specially ordered with front latches for attaching the sun visor. Ordered twice. Both times it was without a latch on the front. Otherwise it's probably a good helmet for a long oval head shape.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • So-so

On the plus side, this is the lightest helmet on the market.

On a positive note this is the lightest helmet I have ever had. On the other hand, not only does it have no visor, it also has no buttons, which is why I chose this helmet. I just added the pictures myself, if I couldn't do that they would be sent back.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • nothing here

Field tested, rider approved

Great helmet, I wear it because it's light and doesn't bother me, I still felt free on the road. It paid off. I got cut off by a van on the freeway. I chose the ditch, not the wagon. Now I'm sitting on my couch with a steel plate holding my broken collarbone and multiple broken ribs together, my head hit the floor hard twice, my helmet made it, I never passed out, not a single stab. My head and I went to the ambulance when it arrived. Thanks to my god and the helmet I can write a review. I'll…

Pros
  • Tough finish
Cons
  • Nothing

The helmet itself is of excellent quality and construction. Looks great and with the right size everything would be great. That's when the problems started. We all know that simply putting on a helmet isn't always the best way to determine if it's right for you. So I buckled it up and took a ride and found that while it was good, it was too loose in the wind. So I'm calling to see if I can return it for a smaller size. I told them what my problem was (to be honest) and they told me I couldn't…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive

The perfect helmet is the best of helmets

Ready to use ••• Perfect! Low weight •• Full visibility •• Excellent workmanship •• Accessories in the box •• Shoulder bag •• Perforated headscarf and inner lining in the helmet. I haven't even gotten on my bike, just sitting on the porch. I can't get over how light this helmet is! Extremely small downside / Must be worn and broken in. Close to the ears or slightly higher. I'm glad I used a sewing tape to measure my head before purchasing - I'm sure it will loosen up a bit and shrink quickly…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only
