Title: New Masuri
Post by: Jacky on July 26, 2013, 12:14:03 PM

Hey,

I just saw on the Official Masuri facebook page that a new 'groundbreaking' helmet will be released in 26 days at the Kia oval. I will be interested to see what design they have created. Has anyone heard anymore information?

They just released the new helmet didnt they?, I think this new one will be alot mroe swirly with the grill, and cover more of the chin. Probably getting in early before the new Laws for helmets take effect.

no it will be a completely new design due to the new BSI standards being introduced later on this year.

Expect to see some changes away from the more traditional shapes would be my inkling :)

i have no idea as im not their designer and havent seen their design :)

good to see the majority of the helmet companies embracing the improvements though as it will benefit you all as the end user in being better protected.

Have seen the new design! Know a guy who works for them. From what I remember it still looks the same, but with a new peak design.

That's quite a lap in logic, it looks just like a normal/current lid in white

I would like a white helmet of any type  ;) All this batting in the sunshine is making me lose about a 5lbs in sweat...  :)
