What brand is the helmet with three vertical bars?
2 Answers
The helmet with three vertical bars is the Hyundai Veloster. The protective function of helmets: The function of a helmet is to protect the head. It is mostly semicircular in shape and mainly consists of three parts: the shell, the lining, and the suspension system. The shell is made of materials such as special steel, fiberglass, reinforced plastic, leather, and nylon to resist damage from bullets, shrapnel, and other impacts to the head. Choosing a helmet: In the field of helmets, there are currently only national standards for motorcycle helmets and sports helmets. Therefore, the quality of electric bicycle helmets varies significantly. Experts suggest that in the absence of national standards, consumers can opt for sports helmets as their safety performance can basically meet the requirements. When purchasing, the quality of the helmet can be judged by smelling it. If the foam inside the helmet has an odor, it may be made from recycled materials, and its impact resistance will be poor. Squeeze it with your hand to see if it deforms. If it deforms under pressure and does not rebound, the helmet is of poor quality. If the foam inside cracks after squeezing, the quality is even worse.
When I was into motorcycles, I noticed this type of helmet with three vertical stripes—it's SIMPSON's classic design. Their 1968 "Outlaw" model was the first to feature these stripes, originally designed for drag racers. Nowadays, these vertical stripes have become a brand signature, especially eye-catching when paired with a T-shaped visor. Vintage car mod enthusiasts absolutely love this look, as it carries the racing DNA of the 70s and 80s. It's worth noting that most of these helmets are open-face, differing from the common full-face structure, with chin protection relying on a cross-bolt retention system.
