Helmets are among the most ancient forms of protection, and are known to have been worn by ancient Greeks and throughout the Middle Ages; at this time they were primarily military equipment, protecting the head from cutting blows with swords and flying arrows. Today however, helmets are used typically for protection from falling objects or high-speed collisions. HJC Motorcycle helmets and hjc bicycle helmets are a definite step in the right direction of providing safety. In fact, headgear in some jurisdictions is compulsory.
Helmet standards in the US
have been based since the 1950's on data collected at Wayne State University from cadaver research. Although studies occasionally appear with newer published data since the Wayne State curves were developed, we have not updated either our testing methods or our failure criteria in over 40 years. Hence the popularity of helmet brands of today have more to do with specialized manufacturing experience, innovative ideas, and reasonable pricing – primarily the reasons why HJC has succeeded in maintaining the status as the most popular helmet brand in North America since 1993.
Easy lies the head….
Primarily a South Korean company, HJC has specialized in manufacturing motorcycle helmets exclusively since 1971 when it debuted in the US and manufactures various helmet styles such as Street Racing Helmets, Off-Road Helmets, Cruiser Helmets and Snowmobile Helmets. In the new millennium, HJC has introduced high-end models with advanced channel ventilation, unique composite shell designs and extensive rider adjustment options, all at prices the average consumer can afford. Small wonder that – Easy lies the head that wears an HJC Helmet.
