What is the weight of the helmet? I see 1.6 pounds on this Amazon page, but the review say 280g (= 0.61pounds). Which one is right?

280 grams is right. The 1.6 pounds is the shipping weight, (includes packaging, box, etc).

I weighed it and it's reading is 346g, taking off the glasses it's reading is 313g. I cut off some stripe so it's not the most precise data.

I don't know the exact weight but I can tell you it is very light, I would say closer too half a pound. What a great helmet, best I have ever had.

I believe it is 230 lb....however, go to the Dahon.com site for more accurate information and/or to get all you questions answered. As I said in my review this is a really nice bike....now that I've had the opportunity to do more riding I am just as, if not more, impressed.

It appears to be a safe helmet. But I have never been in an accident. I'm just ordering another for my wife.

It is very heavy. Probably around 10 pounds. Very comfortable, though, and adjusts perfectly to your head.

the "shipping weight" probably is just an error or a ups round-up or something. it is standard weight for a motorcycle helmet if not lighter than my other one. i have a normal sized head, and the medium is quite tight on me.

Hi Julie, I bought this helmet for my 18 year old. We ordered a large which I think will fit 7 1/4 to 7 3/4 head size. We love this helmet my son is a bull rider and when needed we will order it again. I would go to a sporting goods store to get measurements because I don't think Amazon offers them. We went to a western store to get the size we needed. Good luck!!

I don't know the weight but it's light you cannot feel any weight. You can contact the manufacturer with the question at http://www.safezonemirror.com I have used a large variety of helmet and glasses frame mounted mirrors & this is the best by a wide margin. I use it on all my rides - training, racing, recreational. The field of view is much, much larger than other helmet/glasses frame mounted mirrors.

Thanks Jose! I will check on the other helmets with sizing features. This helps a lot!

The helmet is sold by third-party sellers, not Amazon. I imagine one seller used the term "M" and another used "Medium" and the system just automatically included both of them. But both labels clearly refer to a medium size, so whichever one you choose, you will get a medium (though possibly from different sellers). I have only bought one of these helmets, so I can't answer your second question on the basis of my personal experience, but common sense suggests that there will be no difference.

Weight, no problem. As for fit, if the child's helmet has air vents that you can thread the elastic through then it should be no problem. If no vents, there may also be a stick-on mounting option, but I don't remember.

The spec weight is 230 grams. Didn't weigh it myself, but that seems right.

I bought a medium and a large helmet. My head measures 52 cm so I wear the medium helmet but I wish I had purchased a small. These helmets seem to run a little big. I suggest a medium. You want it to fit tight.

Not sure what that "1.1" number is referring to - could simply be a typo. The engine itself is about 2 pounds; then there's the flex shaft, the pedal, the accessories, and the packing material (box, plastic, etc.). 11.6 pounds sounds about right for a shipping weight. Excellent piece of equipment whatever the weight. good luck.

My head measured 22 & 1/4 inchs. So I picked medium. On inside of helmet it says 57-58cm. It fits me perfectly and I'm very happy with it

No official sticker on mine. But a big thumbs up on the helmet. Extremely robust and comfy at the same time.

Hello! Sorry, but I am not able to help you with those infos - the box was delivered to a friend and I got only the helmet. But I wouldn't recommend this helmet anyway...
