Thirty years ago, carbon fiber was a space-age material, too costly to be used in anything except aerospace. Today, however, carbon fiber is being used in wind turbines, automobiles, sporting goods, and of course motorcycle helmets. Thanks to carbon fiber helmet manufacturers, the latest helmets made from real Carbon Fiber are some of the lightest, smallest and lowest profile helmets that still meet or exceed the DOT Certification standards.
Besides the weight and small size of these Motorcycle Helmets, carbon fiber is better able to absorb forces of an impact than most other helmet material while the fiber weave design makes it less likely for objects to penetrate through the helmet shell.
