I was hefting around some tires here at the shop today and noticed that the Avon Distanzias are heavy! Very heavy!

But the fact is that manufacturing techniques and helmet material technologies have all gotten less expensive in the last few years, despite the fact that Arai offers a $800 helmet in this down economy. This has helped helmet makers offer more and more helmets at lessor and lessor cost. So, we are on the side of cheap helmets, if it gets more riders on two wheels, lowers the cost-barrier for more folks to get on a motorcycle. Let's face it, many of us got into this activity because it's cheaper than other forms of motorized transportation, so things that keep costs down - like cheap helmets - are a good thing for the sport. Our top selling "cheap helmet" line has traditionally been Z1R Helmets. Z1R has held fast to it's price poi
