open-faced design<\/a>, meaning the rider\u2019s visibility is not impacted by the helmet in any way. With that said, wearers might want to consider investing in a good pair of goggles or sunglasses to prevent wind, dust, and sunlight from interfering with their vision.<\/p>\nUsing lightweight and durable materials, as well as a low-profile minimalist design, Daytona Helmets was able to create one of the lightest DOT-approved helmets on the market<\/strong>. Not only does it meet DOT safety standards, but Daytona Helmets also subjected the helmet to its rigorous testing process to ensure it offers a safe level of protection for wearers. For those looking for a rugged and safe beanie-style helmet, this is a great option.<\/p>\nBottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\nWith its straightforward, no-frills design, this is the perfect beanie helmet for those that just want something safe, simple, and lightweight. With that said, it is also available in 12 unique colors, so buyers will have no problem finding a helmet that matches their style.<\/p>\n

Review<\/strong><\/p>\nWe liked that this helmet is perfectly safe but still keeps the weight down. A durable and lightweight ABS shell gives this helmet the impact-resistant qualities necessary to make it a suitable helmet for motorcycle riders. The visor is a bonus and works well at protecting the user\u2019s eyes<\/strong> from oncoming wind and debris. While the lens is not incredible, it is still a useful option to have.<\/p>\nBottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\nIf you are looking for a beanie-style motorcycle helmet that will keep your head safe and comfortable, this is an excellent choice. We like that the designers considered ventilation when they designed it, which is not always the case with the smaller helmet styles.<\/p>\n
