Re: [RC] cool helmets - sharon1359

I have no idea why they aren't approved.  I called SEI a while back, and they
said they're not allowed to say whether particular helmets are in the process
of being approved or not.

However, there are three models by LAS that ARE approved, just not the ones that
Steve sells (as far as I can tell).  The ones that are approved are the Super
Prince, the Super Master, and the Vega Y... but Steve sells the Hi-Tek Art 180
and the Maxleger Art 169.

I might be interested in the LAS helmets if they were approved, but I can't buy
one if they're not because my CTR organization (ECTRA) has a rule that all
riders must wear SEI-Approved helmets.

The current list of SEI-Approved helmets is at
http://www.seinet.org/CPL/astm116301.htm if you would like to check it out.
