A helmet is a piece of safety gear, but it's also a companion you wear every day. A finish that shifts color depending on the angle you look at it raises the joy of ownership another notch. A flip-up is also handy for chatting at a red light or at a stop during a tour. Having this kind of playfulness show up at an affordable price is honestly a welcome thing.

Flip-up helmets are handy since you can open them up during a break, so they're a type that comes in really useful for touring.

I hear Indian helmet brands have an extremely strong share of the domestic market.

At this price point, I honestly worry about how much protective performance is actually guaranteed.

India's safety standards themselves are looser than Japan's, so I don't think you can compare them directly.

A helmet that changes color depending on the viewing angle is just a fun gimmick, plain and simple.

Starting from ₹2,125 is a dirt-cheap price bracket — I wonder what that comes out to in yen.

Depending on the exchange rate, it'd come out to around 3,700 yen — makes sense it's cheap given it's Indian pricing.
