Two questions regarding this helmet.

1. ARe they the same as the expensive NITRO helmets they sell in Europe?

2. Does anyone know their website?

Thanks

kinopya nya lang ang design ng nitro sir wala website siguro yan dahil immitation lang lang at walang certification na napsa yan yung DOT sa likod nya eh hindi DOT approved ibig sabihin nun.HTH

bro,at first glance both the Carting & the Nitro will look identical...but then again, look at Carting helmet...you'll notice that the airvents are not the same...the shell of the carting helmet is a copy from the HJC CS12 helmet plus the additional copy of the Nitro's airvents...

but in fairness to the Carting helmet, it's comfortable to use...good enough for a "budget" helmet....

but if madadag-dagan mo na lang budget mo, get a branded one instead

Thank you ncsb, as for a branded helmet, meron na po ako -- AGV k-series and its really really good.

As for the carting, medyo nakakaenganyo kumuha for everyday use lang kasi quality looks satisfactory and its really cheap!!!

Have you heard of VCAN helmets, maganda din kasi e and cheaper pa by 300 petot than Carting. China din but whats nice is that its a rated helmet. DOT, ECE and snell approved.
Pucha, daming cheap helmets na magaganda na. Maganda din ang Index and Zeus pero super dami na mayroon dito. Mahirap, baka magkapalitan pa kami ng kagrupo pag nag ride.:O
Atleast ang VCAN medyo konti pa lang ang mayroon.

mga sir suggestion lang na try na nyo ang bell,sparco,agv,shouei or arai medyo mahal pero sigurong dot, snell certified sabi nga nila if you think ang worth ng ulo mo ay usd10 buy usd10 helmet better safe than sorry. wag mag padala sa itsura & proma ng helmet ingat & god bless

haven't seen a Vcan helmet yet...but if what you say about it is right, then you've got another option...

personally, i prefer Zeus over index...i've disected a Zeus 803,(helmet of our member who had an accident) cut it half, to reveal what's really inside it...it's got a dual EPS liner and thicker shell compared to other helmets belonging to it's price bracket...

I've got a Carting helmet, the Carbon 95-2 model, ito gamit for every day or City driving lang. Kaya ito kinuha ko is because maganda yung material nya, makapal ang paddings, Plastic at maganda rin ang finish nya. Kapatid ko at bayaw nya ganito na rin ang pinabili ko, kaysa sa mga initation na gawang SM (Sa Manggagaya) bumili ng tig 500 to 1000 lang.
Pag Joyride naman ang gamit ko is AGV na. Iba na kasi ang safe kaya mas maganda invest sa mas magandang helmet.

lightweight ang carting because the shell is made only of ABS plastic...same material used for making stock fairings...

Magaang din ang Carting kapag suot na pero kapag bitbit mo medyo mabigat.

I already have one, ganda rin naman. Magaan din, removeable ang liner. Good buy na rin for 800 pesos. But I will be using this for city driving lang. I think I will have to have another one for long drives.

800 pesos na lang ang carting na full face helmet. which one is this? the one that looks like an index 411?

Flat ang back part nya.. kapareho nga yata nya ung 411

I already saw the carting helmet that looks like the index 411.

Now I know why the carting edition is much cheaper. No offense but mas malambot ang plastic na ginamit for the carting. The interior lining is just as comfortable as the 411 though.
Preference ko lang talaga yung mas matigas ang outer shell. Mas may feeling ng security.
The nice thing with carting is that its cheap and the designs are as nice as the index na din.

Sir try to look at Carting Carbon 95-02 model. Medyo makapal ang plastic nya.
Yung cheap models nya talagang manipis yung plastic. Gamit ko kasi yung Carbon model pang city driving, yung nga lang medyo mahal sa mall.
Ride safe.

tama ka dyan sir.i used carting helmet right now.mganda nga ang porma pero mabigat.pero nasanay na rin ako.ang hirap nga hanapin ng clear visor nito kasi ung original na visor (tinted) gusto ko palitan.wala ako mahanap kung san-saan na ako nag hanap marikina,taytay at caloocan.ayun pala kasukat pala rin sya ng GDR helmet.parehong-pareho sila.as of now for order prin visor ko dito sa manggahan,pasig.sa shop ni lenin,(bikers alley).

no offense taken, ok naman ung carting comfy sya and sakto ang fit sa akin. yes ur right medyo manipis ang shell nya. Budget helmet kasi ito, pero good buy na rin sya.

I will be investing on a better helmet especially for long rides

@pipes07

Oo nga medyo hirap na makakita kapag hapon na dahil sa tinted na visor.
meron din kayang clear visor para sa helmet ko katulad sya ng 411 na model.
