I picked one of these helmets off of a shelf in a kart shop.

Honestly I was stunned at how much the helmet moved. with reasonable force applied to the cheek area below the ears, i noticed considerable amount of movement.

I don't know what safety tests they do to get a snell rating. I think it maybe visor thickness and possible injury incurred during a accident. Im no expert on this subject but honestly I would not feel comftable wearing one going round in a indoor kart.

This is my opinion, all i would say is that i would spend the extra £ even though i do detest the amount they are!

I would like to see the people who earlier posted 'good' comments on the helmet, squeeze the helmet like i said and then give their honest opinion once they have noticed what i did.
