When talking about DOT and non-DOT helmets, they are all basically made from Fiberglass. The non-DOT helmets being made cheaply and without the aid of high pressure. Which is why DOT helmets are so much safer and more durable. Also, most Non-DOT helmets have a very cheap headliner material for the liner. We use an energy absorbing foam called Ensolite for our liner, while still being comfortable it offers energy absorbing properties that headliner material does not. Resulting in a small but safe helmet.
How it's made: Carbon fiber is made by superheating an acrylic fiber yielding high strength to weight and high stiffness to weight properties. When engineered properly Carbon Fiber composites can achieve the strength and stiffness of metals at a significant weight savings, these two factors are key to the manufacture of a helmet.
To accommodate all riders (those who prefer "D" straps and those who prefer the quick release straps), our Carbon Fiber helmets now come with D rings on the helmets and also include quick release straps (not attached) with installation instructions.
