Since Marc and Mycro are the only helmets that have passed the safety tests I have to ponder the following things:
A.What is wrong with Cooper helmets? i.e why are they not deemed safe enough to pass these tests?
B.What efforts are Cooper making to put themselves in a position to meet these saftey standards?

these dont have the nsai standard required for the new rules. But i still wear mine and its very comfortable with excellent vision, my cooper is a genuine old one but these ones are new remakes and just as good. If you want the old ones (genuine) try ebay and local buy and sells. Loads of people are getting rid because they are not up to official standard.
