boboneleg Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 What is your preffered helmet strap fixing ? I never really thought of this until someone gave me a helmet with a latch type fixing. I've always had double-d ring before and they feel much more secure to me .......... What about you ?

Catteeclan Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I haven't seen a double D helmet in ages. Having said that my last 3 helmets have been Nolans and all have the toothed latch, haven't thought about it for ages either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Given that I have a large head for my body type..I have both style..the latch tooth design is faster ..but the D ring feel more secure... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nute Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I have both, both on Shoei helmets. I prefer using the DD type but the fixing points for the latch type are higher up in the lid and therefore hold it on my noggin more securely, at least that what it feels like. Thankfully ive never had to test either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckster Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Yes it looks disproportionately large compared to your body. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YamaHead Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I've had the Dbl-D's for years on my Shoei & Arai lids.... they do feel more secure. But now I've gotten used to the latch-type on my Bell....although it can sometimes be a PITA w/ my 5 thumbs on my LH.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
