Morning All
After what seems like a lifetime we are now at the stage where we can officially unveil our 2016 range as BS 7928:2013 compliant. Many of our followers will know we have spent the last few months dissecting, analysing and rebuilding the helmets in order to provide what we believe is an improved product for 2016. We have worked with The Sports Technology Institute at Loughborough University as well as with the lab at INSPEC to rigorously test the helmets against the new BSI helmet safety standard that we sat on the committee of to approve.
The PremierTek range has been designed using the unique Ayrtek structural shell shape made from high impact injection-moulded plastic, featuring an EPS liner and a fixed position Teflon coated steel grille as standard.The interior size is adjusted by the comfort padding system that is provided with the helmet. They also feature our 4 point attachment chin-strap that acts to minimise forefront wobble and adds to helmet stability when wearing the helmet. This Model comes with 6mm, 9mm and 12mm foam padding sets as standard to adjust the interior sizing. Additional padding sizes are available via our webshop if required.
-BS 7928:2013 Compliant
-Upgraded shell materials.
-Revised Grille design to align with the end of the peak.
-Fixed Grille position.
-The PremierTek range is available in 2 colours in early 2016, Navy Blue and Black.
- Branded Microfibre Storage Bag
-Size Range- 58cm-64cm.
-Approx Weight- 872g (Steel Grille Model)
-RRP- £89.99
With this in mind we will be rolling out some promotional offers in advance of the range landing for anyone wanting to get in early and secure themselves a helmet in time for the UK outdoor season. There will be 3 main offers as per below:-
1. Early Bird Offer- The 1st 100 customers to order will be able to secure themselves a helmet at 33% off of RRP. (Blue Only)
2. A Thank You Discount Offer- The 1st 75 customers will be able to secure themselves a helmet at £20 off of RRP. (Blue Only)

We would have liked to have had everything here by March but due to admin frustrations at the test house that we out of our control we will be receiving our 1st batch of PremierTek Adult Steel helmets at the end of April now. We would like to thank everyone for their continued support over the last few months and we look forward to tackling 2016 head on!
Cheers

The Titanium model is the next version we are working on getting through and certified, we have started with the entry level Steel model to get everything ticked off as the shell is the same just the grille will change between the 2 versions.

I'm sure this is not what you mean but if I am one of the first 50 customers would I get 53% off and a nektek?
Or is it

I was looking at getting one of the new helmets in black but seems I can only get one with a nektek at the highest price. Not sure why the black is not available with the other offers. May go for an alternative.

Hi @MJ32 we only have a limited number of black coming in this order which was why we haven't put them on the early bird offer. If you really want one (or other CBF members do too) let me know and I'll include a quantity in the Early Bird offer if demand is there 👍

Good stuff Tom. Any plans in the pipeline for a small men's titanium? The normal size was just too big for my noggin - and for others too, I'd wager.
-
congrats Tom. im sure its a relief after all the months of testing to finally be at this point

Matt, you may fit into the Youth size model, this will have thicker padding to reduce the interior size to it to provide a snugger fit.

After chasing up the ECB for 3 weeks they've finally updated their website and we're obviously top of the list 😀

Received the latest Titanium grille samples today to fit to the helmets, the Titanium grille model will come in at an Approx overall weight of 740g.
We will be using the same shell on both the steel and Titanium version so the option to upgrade at a later stage to the Titanium model is there if customers wish to do so.
