Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Helmets. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of 100% Altec MTB Helmet 2019.

The first thing is material. Looking at what 100% Altec MTB Helmet 2019 is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Helmets. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Helmets. Brands like 100% are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Helmets category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.


Comparing Prices

Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Helmets.

It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

100% Altec MTB Helmet 2019 Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

  • Description: 100% Altec MTB HelmetWith integrated Smartshock® technology, the 100% Altec Helmet is designed to provide unrivalled protection when mountain biking, whether that’s at a local trail centre or heading out into the wilds. Bounce Back from Hitting the DirtFrom technical, root-strewn trails, rock gardens and smooth flow trails the Altec MTB Helmet is designed to provide head protection when skills come up short or gravity and low-grip conspire to fling you to the deck. With a combination of Multi-Density EPS foam and the Smartshock® Rotational Protective System, the Alteca MTB helmet soaks up and dissipates the energy from impacts and at the same provides incredible protection of the brain from the rotational forces encountered when you take a fall. Across a wide range of speeds and impact angles, the Alteca will keep you safe and secure. Riding is a BreezeBuilding up some heat and sweat is inevitable as you take to the trails but fear not, the Altec is engineered to keep you as cool and comfortable as possible. This is achieved via 15 large ventilation ports channelling airflow around the head while warm sweaty air is expelled out of the rear exhaust ports. Combine this ventilation with the anti-microbial and moisture-wicking liner and you have a helmet that feels as fresh as it looks even when riding far and fast. Functionally FabulousWhen it comes to dialling in the fit the Altec makes it easy. No matter how rough and rowdy the terrain the Adjustable Ratcheting Fitment System ensures you can keep the helmet secure via a simple twist of the rear dial, while the Nexus push-release snap-buckle makes getting your helmet on or off a cinch. The multi-point, adjustable visor optimises protection and vision while allowing easy stowage of goggles and if you’re a rider who prefers sunglasses, the sunglasses storage system is a welcome addition. Whether you’re taking in laps of a trail centre of heading out into the wilds, the Altec is your perfect and protective riding companion. Features:Smartshock® – 14 Point Smartshock® Rotational Protective SystemMulti-Density EPS foam – injection moulded with polycarbonateMassive airflow – With an impressive 15 ventilation portsAltec 350g / M-Shell – Expanded coverage while still lightweightSunglasses Storage – Integrated sunglasses storage systemMulti-point adjustable visor designed – For maximum vision and goggle stowageAnti-Microbial liner – Washable, moisture-wickingAdjustable Ratcheting Fitment SystemNexus Push Release Snap-BuckleSize-specific moulds – XS/S, S/M, and L/XLBuy 100% Protection from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
