Mawbs Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Anyone tried out these ETTO helmets , especially the Enduro style one with extended neck coverage.. http://www.etto.eu/bike-helmets/mtb/champery-mtb i saw them advertised in classifieds so just asking ??
No Hare Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 It is a helmet, nothing special, nothing "wow!”Chin straps on the models are also a bit short, probably reason why people are selling. Fit before you buy an adage I believe in.
Amberdrake Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 There is a few comments regarding these in the Sportsworld rave thread. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/144031-rave-for-sportsworldcoza/?hl=sportsworld The chin strap is more than long enough for me and helmet is comfortable.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 A lot of people have bought them. Great price, good weight and comfort and they do a good job protecting you. For the price, you won't find a better lid

For the price, you won't find a better lid+1Bought one earlier in the year - very light and have good ventilation, so it is working well on hot days.To the OP, you might find more info here - https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/137425-etto-helmets-jhb-bulk-order/?hl=etto

Bought one and been using it for a while now (Most of the riders in our group have actually gone and bought one) .... comfy, enough ventilation and looks far better than the price tag would suggest.

Do you know of anyone who has fallen with one and how they stand up to a crash?
Sepia Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Off subject but I am looking for one of these in Durban?Anyone?Thanks
Hairy Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Hairy, I have two (diff colours) and am very happy with them. Do you know of anyone who has fallen with one and how they stand up to a crash?One of the riders in the first week of buying A proper fall on your head has not been tested yet, no matter how we have motivated the above rider to try. But yes, all of us have taken a hard tumble with the helmet and it has fared well. For the amount of money it is a great buy and has supposedly also passed all the safety standard tests.
Mike Bike Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I bought one at the argus expo, been using it since. Very light, comfortable and no problems with straps..

The padding inside the helmet at least is thicker than my old Giro and they look just so much better, I'm very happy. The new colours on the Etto site do look cool.
