Title: XSPEED Carbon Fiber Helmet
Post by: tyler1015 on June 08, 2011, 11:25:29 AM

I know its a stretch but does any one have this helmet or know of anyone? Found very few things on this helmet.

I know light helmets are exspensive just trying to see if there are good options priced a little lower.

Have one. The Xpeed CF2000 carbon fiber. What do you need to know?

Local dealer has their whole line in stock, including shields.

is it light? does it flow well? I have a RF1000 shoei right now. It has no drag, but if I can save a few ounces it would be great.

Very light. I couldn't find anything lighter (I forget the number, but nothing else was even close) and I was looking at everything. I have neck problems that mean that a helmet needs to be super light for me to wear it for any length of time. Snell approved.

Good air flow as far as I can tell. Little hard to tell for sure right now since it's about 100 degrees out. I can usually feel the breeze coming through.
