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 HJC Furion 2.0 Helmet.

The first thing is material. Looking at what HJC Furion 2.0 Helmet 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 HJC 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.

HJC Furion 2.0 Helmet 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.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the HJC Furion 2.0 Helmet reviews there.

  • Description: HJC Furion 2.0 HelmetThe HJC Furion 2.0 Helmet is their lightest helmet to date, and not just light it’s quick too, its aerodynamic design saving a claimed 7% in energy expenditure, compared to close rivals. Thanks to its remarkably low weight, efficient aero design and outstanding ventilation, you’ll soon forget all about having the Furion 2.0 on your head. And yet should you be involved in a crash it’s packed with the latest head-protection technology to keep you safe.  Safety First.Starting with the all-important safety aspects, the Furion 2.0 features a tough polycarbonate outer bonded to a shock-absorbing EPS foam liner. The polycarbonate outer adds structural integrity and strength while the foam inner provides energy dissipation and protection from the forces of crash impacts. The EPS foam is also reinforced by a skeletal frame integral to the core, increasing overall strength and holding the helmet intact during multiple impacts.A Perfect Fit. Every time. A good fit is vital for both your safety in a crash and comfort on the bike. Here HJC introduces their Selfit system, doing away with a traditional dial system. First, An ergonomic 5-step snap-fit system lets you get a precise fit for your head shape every time.  As you ride and move around your bike, the system pivots and automatically adjusts the gap between your head and helmet, maintaining comfort and fit every time you move. Fit and forget. Go With the FlowJust like all their road helmets, the Furion 2.0 has been developed and refined in HJC’s own wind tunnel facility. This has resulted in a design with smooth airflow, minimising drag as you pick up speed. However, being fast is no good if you overheat and it’s here the Furion works brilliantly to keep you cool.Combining their Ventury Dynamics and CoolPath technologies airflow is turbo-charged through the helmet to keep you cooler than ever. CoolPath replaces the inner padding to increase air circulation while the Ventury Dynamics uses pressure changes to suck air inside and push warm moist air out of the exhaust vents. This quickly dissipates the heat you build-up, cools your head and boosts comfort on the bike.A masterpiece in aerodynamics, comfort, ventilation and safety, the Furion 2.0 Helmet is for those of you who want a streamlined and aero-efficient fit without compromising temperature regulation. FeaturesDeveloped in HJC’s bespoke wind tunnel facilityIn-mould EPS shock-absorbing coreIntegrated Skeleton boost structural strengthCoolpath technology – light and airy performanceVentury Dynamics airflow designAdvanced Air-Channel TechnologyAntibacterial X-Static pads at the browHJC Selfit helmet adjustmentUnisex, universal fitWeight: 195g (+/-10)Buy HJC Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
