Yeah but it isn't on the list of lids that meet the standards, so maybe best avoided.


Out of interest. Did you look or believe you knew? Or just presume it wasn’t as you’d never heard of it?

Easy mistake to make given it's listed under MRP Protech rather than Forma, I did the same to be honest.

Humble apologies, I looked for Forma as the manufacturer. Should have taken more care. Sorry.

I hadn't heard of it, but I looked and misunderstood the naming. My bad, but thanks for calling me out anyway. As you see, I'm big enough to hold my hands up.

Was a genuine question.


I saw his post. Thought “not heard of that is it complaint”

Checked the list. Say the 20 odd formas together(to me Manufacturers name doesn’t stand out. Big bunch of similar names helmet did).

Came back and saw your reply saying it wasn’t complaint and was trying to understand how you got there. Thought you might hve a different list.

Forma is owned by Protech, the big Indian helmet company. They also make a lot of biking helmets for Indian market. I also know for sure that a lot of well known brands get their helmets made by Forma even today. Forma branch of Protech has investments from Kiran More (former Indian wicketkeeper) and the looks of their initial offerings were designed by Sachin Tendulkar till he was playing. Sachin used Albion till 1996-97 and then switched to Forma that he used till his retirement.
