Q. What is In-Mold Technology?
A. In-Mold Technology describes a process which foams an inner shell beneath the outer shell of a helmet under extreme pressure and high temperature. The result is a total bond and an extremely stable helmet structure with a very low weight. With In-Mold helmets, protection against mechanical force, e.g., such as those generated by a fall onto a sharp or pointed object, is significantly greater than with helmets constructed using point bonding.
Q. What is EPS?
A. EPS stands for “Expanded Polystyrene”. The inner shells for all In-Mold helmets are made of EPS. It absorbs the force resulting from an impact to provide the wearer with the greatest possible degree of protection. EPS is a material with particularly small pores. It consists of innumerable, microscopic air pockets. It is these air pockets which provide the protective effect. In addition, EPS is not water (sweat absorbent).
Q. What is PC Shell?
A. PC stands for Polycarbonate is a master for In-Mold and vacuum forming. PC has higher impact strength and can handle higher temperatures than other plastic materials. The results are light weight and compact in strength.
Q. What does flow vent and steel mesh do?
A. The vent openings prevent heat from building up inside the helmet and provide pleasant cooling. The steel mesh protects wearer’s head from insect, sharp object penetration and helps heat extraction up to 20%~~30%
Q. How well do helmets work?
A. Very well indeed, as long as they are fitted securely and buckled when you crash. They can prevent up to 88 per cent of cyclists' brain injuries. Ask any club cyclist, whose shared experience with other cyclists has shown them the pattern clearly. The down side is that many helmet users are not securing their helmets level on the head and adjusting the straps carefully. Those cute kids with helmets tilted back have their big, bare foreheads right out there ready to crack. A helmet has to be fitted carefully to do its work.
