Did you weigh them? These look more like the claimed weights
Yes these are all the helmets i have personally weighed in their respective sizes. Have owned each of them at various points in time. I think weights will vary depending on size as well for the same helmets

I tried a few helmets and weighed them here (added to the list) http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=40141.15

Notice how light the GM is and that the top end Shrey was a fair bit above their claimed weight.

Do try to mention the sizes as well mate

Shrey Masterclass Air Titanium (Standard Adult): 833g

Interesting thing to note. The new masuri VS elite titanium i just ordered weighs less than what was previously posted. Is it possible that same sized helmets from the same brand vary in weight that much? Or have they done something to reduce the weight? I think so as the swapa band in this new one is now the same as OS helmets which is lighter.

There will be some natural variation as the finished weight can depend upon how much glue has been used to stick the EPS liner to the shell, the cloth used to cover it with, some tolerance in the Ti grille welds etc
