Do you know the misunderstanding of using PASGT helmet? Follow the editor to have a simple understanding!
1. The lighter the better
Relatively speaking, the lighter the PASGT helmet, the better. But the lighter the riding helmet, the smaller the chance that it will pass the test standard, and the higher the relative price. Therefore, the prerequisite for choosing PASGT helmet is to pass the test standard. Most helmets above 200 yuan can achieve about 260G. This weight will not make you tired even for long distances, so don't care too much about the weight index of the helmet. Unless you are for a bicycle race. Try to reduce your own weight, otherwise, it is not worth the extra money to buy an ultra-lightweight helmet.
2. The bigger or more holes in the PASGT helmet, the more airy it will be
Breathability is the key to the helmet, which can keep your head dry during long-distance riding. The more or larger the ventilation holes on the PASGT helmet, the greater the airflow around your head, and the cooler you feel. However, please keep in mind that the more or larger the ventilation holes on the helmet, the more exposed your head will be, so the degree of protection will be reduced accordingly. Compared with mountain bike helmets, road bike helmets have more or larger ventilation holes. Similarly, road bikers must consider the weight of their helmets more than mountain bikers. Generally speaking, the lighter the helmet, the more expensive it is. Therefore, unless you are doing a bicycle race, you should reduce your own weight as much as possible, otherwise, it is not worth the extra money to buy an ultra-lightweight bicycle helmet.
3. The small buckle and drawstring are related to life, the buckle and drawstring cannot bear a certain force, they will break.
You may only know that riding helmets need to be subjected to some impact tests, but the buckles and straps also need to be subjected to corresponding tensile tests. If they fail the corresponding tensile tests, they cannot be used on the helmet. Therefore, a qualified riding helmet, small buckle and pull strap need to pass the corresponding test, then it can be regarded as a helmet that meets the test standards in the true sense.
The above is the introduction of the editor: About the misunderstanding of the use of PASGT helmet, I hope it can help you.
