Chase, I think these videos are extremely helpful especially for researching protective gear. I also think it’s great you try and reply to questions folks ask in the comments section of your videos.

I purchased the M5 Alpinestars helmet like 6mos ago, and it’s been great for the weekend warrior adventures I absolutely need more of! Matched with the tech 5 boots gives me the confidence I’m looking for. Thanks RM ATV MC for these super informative videos. It really helped me narrow down what I’ve been looking for. I would definitely suggest going to the local dealership to try out different brands and find out what fits you best before any purchase.

My HJC MX2 fits perfect and was dirt cheap. If I was picking between the ones in this video , I would say the FOX takes it.

The brands that do the shared shells should just do M/L and XS/S and just include the padding for both. You’d get way less returns and people could customize the fit

Thank you. I do have a suggestion though. Add how easy or hard it is to strap and unstrap with their D rings. Even with the gloves off, what a pain it is to get my low level HJC strap out of the D rings after a ride. I know Bell had it figured out in the late 70's-80's. :)

The white Alpinestars (#4), looks like a Storm Troopers helmet from the super hit movie Star Wars. It should go good with the modern Batman art plastic on MX bikes today. :)

Hey great video man. I'm looking for a very light weight helmet and the Fox V1 looks great. Could you please provide a few recommendations for helmets that are similar in weight and perhaps lighter, while within the price range of the helmets discussed in the video? Would be greally appreciated, thanks. Also, are there any advantages in buying a newer year helmet rather than an older year one? Thanks

I have an older fox v1 thats probably 5 or 6 years old. The bell mx9 in that red/white/blue is in my cart now as the top contender. I was also thinking of giving a hands free hydration tube an option as well such as USWE. Curious if any helmet is better for that or not. Still not sure i want to commit to it or not.

Correction: Yes, a heaver helmet will hit the ground harder, but not faster, (a bit slower if accelerating). It is your head weight stopping at the same speed, so it still depends on the foam/energy absorbing material. You are very much welcome. :) Doug in Michigan.

How does the Fox V1 compare to the Bell MX-9 in terms of quality and overall feel? Also how is sizing between these two brands, if I'm size XL in Bell should I consider size L or XL in FOX (their dimensions are a bit different)?
@rmatvmc

I would take the new Fox V1 over the MX-9 due to how much lighter it is. They both, I think, are very comparable in regards to quality and fit. If you wear an XL in the bell, then I would imagine you'll be an XL in the Fox too. That being said, from a looks standpoint, it's hard to beat a Bell! - Chase

The Mipps system confuses me. Helmets used to be smooth, round shape. Then with air vents and goggle strap guides, and maybe even some abstract art in there, ridges popped up all over the helmet. Ridges that can grab the ground and twist your neck a little more. What actually works better, a mipps with a modern Star Wars helmet shell, or a Bell Moto 4 with a smooth shell? I wish Bell would bring back the Moto-4. Maybe some new protection in the shell, (if it is better). Nostalgic and functional. I bet they would sell well. I guess I have go get a Darth Vader helmet, and look like I came from outer space.

The abstract angles “deflect” during an impact. As opposed to “direct”. From what I understand…round creates opportunity for more direct impacts. At least that is what the marketing folks state. 🧐🤓😉
