Helmet quick release for bearded men
Helmet quick release for bearded men
Its hard to look cool when every time we put on or take off our helmet, we cry like a little bitch.
What's the consensus on quick releases? Particularly the Echo, which seems to be the most popular and is DOT/Snell approved.

PS, yes, I'm a HUGE believer in being as safe as possible, would prefer double-D-rings if they didn't rip my precious few beard hairs out every time
Looking forward to comments, questions, and snide remarks.

Tough to find but a ratchet system like those on a Akoury helmet, works great for me! The link is to a plastic version, the Akoury is all metal.

does this type require any modification to the straps?
I use this type for several years because it doesnt require any modification to the straps, but I like the idea of the ratchet

I'm not sure, my Akoury helmets have the ratchet system installed (like Nolan). It doesn't appear either company offer it as a accessory. The link I posted for the aftermarket set does say they need cut and resewn.

Haven't and won't use one without it since 2007.

Shave.
I wouldn't use a plastic piece that likely won't stay together during "helmet use."
D-rings have been tested and have passed those tests.
