I'm interested in trying to make one of these face cage + road helmet helmets.
Has anyone taken a significant hit to the face with one though? I'd be worried that the bolts/clips would just pull through the polystyrene in the helmet...
The bolts won't come out with impact. They're in pretty solidly and wouldn't come out with an impact from the front. You'd need to pull pretty hard down or outward to dislodge them. Even then you're probably not going to get hurt from it.
the j clip is useful, it prevents the cage moving at all once strapped in.
Looks good Joni.
I'm tempted to try the bern watts mod.
Cheers Snoops. I would have liked the j clips but the visor mount is in the way on this set up.
Do you meant tempted to try my mod? Welcome to any time.
I would have gone with this if it had fit as to my mind it's ideal.
Me too, comfy helmet...
The protect is the most comfortable helmet I've ever had, and I use a Whisper for my commute.
Gutted this doesn't fit my pea head.
