Airoh TR1 helmet - I've ordered one, anyone got this brand?

[The Sauce]

Sorry to bump such an old thread, but I found this forum on a Google search. I was looking for TR1 reviews because i'm planning on buying one soon!

You've got to excuse me, we get all these cool things a bit late in the states.

So how are you TR1 owners liking the purchase after these few months?

I really like it. The LOOK certainly catches peoples attention. Ideal in summer but too draughty in winter. Super light helmet. Easy to clean.

The only negative I can think of is that you must wear earplugs, which I usually did anyway with other helmets. It's not a wind whistling through the gaps or poor sealing visor issue - visor down seals fine. It's just the lack of soft padding inside over your ears and the wafer thin shell I think.

Yes I definately agree with MD very good helmet always getting people commenting on it, very light and comfortable, realy only a summer helmet though and can be a bit noisy

and the new Airoh was 245g.

Are you sure you don't mean 1245 grams? At 245 grams it would float off your head.

Yeah I must have meant 1,245g vs 1,345 for the cabbage! What was I drinking that night when I posted those weights?

I put my helmets on our not to be trusted kitchen scales today.
- TR1 was 1,480g
-Caberg was 1,600g
-Nitro N800 model was 1,790g

Not really much in it by the numbers, but to pick the TR1 up you would swear it's super light. And what's up with my scales giving heavier readings now? Must be the alignment of the planets again or the weight of winter depression brought on by a wet Saturday.
