The higher unofficial standards "Snell" that a few might meet was also last modified in the same year. Other countries' standards are at least as old. More money paid at retail doesn't necessarily get any more "Spec" built into a helmet. |
"They all have to meet the same standards", etc etc.
Which ones meet Snell testing standards? As far as the U.S. goes, it's supposed to be tougher than CPSC testing -- but not all helmets have Snell certification, either. Do a "find in page" for the name Snell at the 2008 page at helmets.org and you won't find many that aren't actually rated for motorcycles. They even mention Specialized as being the last major U.S. manufacturer to build to either the B-90 or the newer & tougher B-95 Snell standard. Looking at the list at Snell's site, it seems that there aren't many at all: http://www.smf.org/ http://www.smf.org/certlist/std_B-90...90C_B-95C.html |
