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 IXS Trigger FF Helmet 2019.

The first thing is material. Looking at what IXS Trigger FF 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 IXS 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.

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: iXS Trigger FF HelmetTheir best and lightest full-face MTB helmet to date, the iXS Trigger FF Helmet sets new standards for protection with a remarkable lack of weight. When you’re mountain biking, relying on gravity to speed you down steep trails and over big features then you need kit you can have confidence in when it goes wrong. This is especially true of protection for your head and by choosing the iXS Trigger FF Helmet you have DH certified protection should gravity get the better of you and you hit the dirt. Take the Weight Off Your MindDesigning a full-face MTB helmet is a balancing act of giving you high levels of protection while not adding the burden of too much weight. With the Trigger FF Helmet, the team at iXS have hit the perfect sweet spot. Thanks to the patented fully in-moulded unibody construction and internal X-Frame the Trigger FF comes in at a mere 595 grams for the small/medium size. Once on it’s a helmet you’ll soon forget about, such is its lack of bulk. X-FRAMETMUnique to iXS helmets, X-Frame provides incredible all-round protection where the shell of the helmet is directly connected to the impact-absorbing EPS material. This patented technology sees the faceguard seamlessly connected with the head EPS liner, resulting in enhanced structural strength while allowing iXS to strip away unnecessary weight and bulk plus allowing them to enhance ventilation.Keeping it FreshWhile protection is obviously most important, you also want a helmet which won’t leave you a hot and sweaty mess after an MTB session. A copious number of vents are strategically placed around the helmet to enhance airflow and when combined with integrated internal channels you’ll enjoy sweat-beating air circulation. If you do go beyond the limits of tyre grip and you end up hitting the dirt hard then you can rely on the ErgoFit Ultra system to keep the Trigger FF firmly in place and with it’s vertical and horizontal adjustment it gives you an easily customized fit. The Fidlock magnetic closure also makes it easy to get the FF on and off. Lastly, the 2-level visor adjustment allows you to rest goggles and adjust the visor to your preferred position. Features:New patented in-mould technologyExternal & internal ventilation channelsGoggle compatible adjustable visorPrecision interlockingErgoFit UltraTM system for horizontal and vertical adjustmentFidlock magnetic closureEN1078, CPSC, ASTM, KC+/- 595g (SM 54-58cm), +/- 660g (ML 58-62cm)Buy iXS Protection from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
