The helmet looks good and feels good too. Quality and look wise this helmet provides value for money but I seriously suggest buyers to atleast add 5cms to head size and then buy the helmet. The paint quality is good, comes with clear coat to protect the vinly stickers and the Steelbird branding.

This would be my first Steelbird helmet. Initial thoughts, buy a size larger. And back of the head is certainly a little cramped. I am not sure on the strength of the material its built with. Looks a little weak and flimsy. while ordering, make sure you add around 5 cms more to your fitting size as per measurement!

The thermocol padding is thick enough and cushioning inside is of good quality and supportive at high speeds.  It is strong built and is sturdy enough to protect you from fall. One of the safest helmets designed to be used on Indian roads. While the one on top keeps your head cool and is actually quite useful when you are stuck in traffic. You don’t feel suffocated due to this design,though you might feel so if you are a new user.

Helmet needs one improvement, visor of the helmet could be less dark, it is difficult to drive when you close the visor at night. If you have opened the visor face, then certainly you are prone to dust particles and objects getting into your eyes at night.

Traveling for long distance with this helmet on doesn’t irritate you because of its Light weight. Padding is very soft but placing is somewhat an issue covering left part of the eye. Airflow through the inlets are even.

The visor area is quite large and the visibility on either sides is good. The air vents come as a bonus, the front one gives you air for respiration as well as keeps the visor clean helps prevent fogging,in rainy days or in cold weather. The vents can be closed when not required.  The packaging was good though the delivery time is hampe.
