Arai helmets - CLON??????

[Smalesy]

Have found Arai Tour X at £239 delivered - just one question, whats the difference between a standard Arai helmet and a CLON one?

Clon = Clone, but what it means is beyond me.

Used this company myself, I think they source there supply from France, as sometimes you have to wait until they have stock, could it mean they are Continental ones!

That would make sense as they have slightly differend shaped bonces.

Does this make any sense?

I can understand that orientals have different head sizes and shapes, and the same would seem to apply to negroid peoples. And we know they have to make huge helmets for the over-fed American market. But even there, I would have though that most white poeple would fit within the normal range for white folk from Europe. After all, that's where their ancestors came from.

But surely caucasian people from whichever European country are going to be roughly the same?

Even so, it's well known that no one helmet suits all heads. Indeed, it often seems that different helmets from the same maufacturer vary widely in shape and fit.

I looked at this post and called J&S in Waterlooville nr Portsmouth to see if they would price-match the Tour-X price. The guy I spoke to said they might well be able to, and offered to call me back when he had authorisation.
