The protection is made of composite, so it's not as strong as steel or titanium, but still very rigid. They are very comfy, thin and yet padded and protective. At least I feel safe with them, I haven't crashed yet to check their real protective feature.. but I feel safe nevertheless.

Maybe lack some protection features of a full racing boot, but is very comfortable and breathable. It's got a good lateral and torsional protection.

For my head shape, this helmet is the best snug fit without blocking my head blood flow. Snell rating, so I'm confident with the safety. Noise-wise might not be the best, but for the price I think it's a good compromise. I use ear plugs anyway.

Very good looking. I usually fit medium, and I got small with those gloves. The leather is a little thin, so if you look for more protection, maybe a thicker glove would do better. The fit is very comfortable.

Does it fit the Qwest model?
Hi, I'm looking for a great mirror/chrome looking shield for my Shoei Qwest helmet. Will the CX-1 Spectra Shield fit the Qwest? If not, which one (chrome looking) would fit? Thanks

How are the size basis (US or European)?
Hi, the size selection goes from 40 to 56, are those US size or European size? If they are US size, why you don't have 38? Thanks
