nominal weight 250g for medium

did you measure a medium at 210g?


Did you read my comment up above? I even make it easier for everyone to align in 3 rows.

Small (manufactured sticker 2014/10) = 255 grams
Medium (manufactured sticker 2014/11) = 233 grams - manufacturer defect or one-off?
Medium (manufactured sticker 2014/12) = 273 grams

Now we are talking about 40 grams discrepancy. I don't make noise for no reason.

yes i read your incorrect comment above

one last time...

YOU said medium label says 250g

THAT is the reference point for measuring deviation

i can make it easy too, but in just one row...

250 - 233 is 17, not 40

Stop looking at the manufacturer label. Weights below is from my weight scale. The delta is 40 grams for 2 helmets in size Medium.

Small (manufactured sticker 2014/10) = 255 grams
Medium (manufactured sticker 2014/11) = 233 grams - manufacturer defect or one-off?
Medium (manufactured sticker 2014/12) = 273 grams

I can also understand the double paradox (a medium lighter than a small, a medium 40gr heavier than another medium). Probably that is something related to the density of the helmet's foam(?).
Whatever the reason if manufacturer claims 250gr then 233gr is normal.
End of thread.
