KBC lids
 

Did do a search on this, but I couldn't found anything, so if there are any threads...point me in that direction.

Been looking around recently at lids, possibly investing in a new one soon, and I've been looking around at bits and bobs. Now I'll be honest - I'm your stereotypical Arai/Shoei man, more leaning towards Shoeis mainly on comfort and weight.

But a brand I haven't really had much exposure to is KBC - I've seen a couple of guys wearing them but I've never had a close look at them myself. They look relatively smart and the more expensive end (XP-3, VR-4R and VR-2R) seem to be quite well spec'd.

So has anyone worn one, seen them, got any ideas on them, views or reviews?

I have one it's ok, not crash tested though, the're cheap and have the relevant markings, just not the fancy bits.

I got an AR1 a couple of years ago, was in a sale at £50 with free iridium visor. Been pleased with it. Comfy to wear and pretty quiet. I'd certainly have another KBC lid.

I've crashed one KBC and it did a great job (well I only had a small headache after a 45mph grass banking-head interface) so I got another :) I have a really small head too and they fit me just right.
