Helmet weight?

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

The only lid I could find that claims a <3 lb weight in an HJC. Any other true lightweights out there (other than the AXO carbon fiber)? Thanks.

Seems the lightweights are all around 3 pounds.

My new Moto7 is supposed to weigh 1300 grams which is 2.87 lbs. They have some clearanced priced ones at www.genuineaccessories.com/Closeout/COmoto7.htm but they are carbon fiber and still expensive. I know how the money thing goes, I have been through tight times before.

If you can sand and paint, you could buy that Showtime3 for $179 and put a paint job on it but that's probably way, way too much trouble, plus it would probably eventally scratch off and show the old paint underneath.

Thanks for the replies. Seems very few manufacturers will claim a specific weight; they just say "lightweight". Anything under three lbs. works for me (weightwise). Now I just gotta figure which one fits the best. Man, there are a lot of decent helmets out there!
