never heard of the brand before but walked into shop and tried a few helmets on, fell in love with this and bought it. didnt want to spend so much but i just had to have it. paid 650
I hope its crash test was better than the previous Airoh helmets, they are pretty much bottom of the pack. 43/100 on testing is pretty low. A cheap Fox V1 scored better. www.crash.org.au/ratings.php
The helmet your talking about is not the helmet we reviewed, the helmet tested in the crash.org.au/ratings is the Airoh Terminator 2.1, we reviewed the Airoh Aviator 2.2 which is a Multi Axial Stratified Composite Carbon Kevlar helmet the two are very different in the materials used to make them.
Like I said, I hope it tests better than their previous helmets. I cannot find any crash data, so if you could share your research that would be great. The Airoh certainly appeals on weight, but I want safety figures. Check the crash.org.au site under all categories to see what I mean.
Oh wow, that's it then, if everyone else is doing it, must be good! The top riders used to wear cork lined helmets too. It very well may be the most amazing helmet ever, but I want test data, not anecdotal evidence.
M LO Nope it does not. I wish it did, then I would consider buying one. The Airoh has a dual density polystyrene liner. So far it seems most European and Japanese helmet manufacturers are lagging behind on features like MIPS, Leatt 3D Turbine, Bell Moto 9 Flex or 6D type technologies.

For people wondering the Aviator is worth about 700 for the Matte Black and 900 for any with a paint job.

The Aviator 2.2 is being used by top riders from around the world, look into that!

Does this helmet have some type of mips system in it?

you must be joking me? What a fucken joke hahahaha
do u even ride much
wait... a $600 helmet doesn't have the mips system that a $200 leatt helmet has? pass
Well, mips wasn't there yet when 2.2 was released. Check 2.3 with amss.
