Speed and Strength excels at producing gear that provides a great deal of bang for the buck, and their SS1500 helmet is a great example of this. It comes with a pricetag that is under $200, which means that this quality helmet definitely punches well above it’s weight - especially when you take a look at the features.
Starting inside, the SS1500 wraps your head in a plush Coolmax liner that has moisture wicking qualities and is fully removable. Having a moisture wicking liner doesn’t do much for you if there is no ventilation, but Speed and Strength have that covered with their Airstrike direct course ventilation. This is a system of three adjustable vents at the front and one large exhaust at the rear, which forces air directly where it is needed most, while simultaneously pulling warm, moist air out the back. The interior also has a built-in pump system that allows you to inflate the cheek pads for a custom fit and to provide more isolation from wind noise.
Like all Speed and Strength helmets, the SS1500 comes with their optically correct, anti-fog and anti-scratch outer faceshield. Clear is included, but they can also be had in dark smoke, gold mirror and silver mirror. Behind the outer shield is a fully retractable sun-visor which Speed and Strength call DVD, or Drop Visor Design. The visor provides great coverage and is operated by a well thought out, spring-loaded mechanism.
If the idea of a feature-rich helmet that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg appeals to you, the Speed and Strength SS1500 should not be overlooked. If you're interested in this, or any other Speed and Strength helmet, you can order one of your own by calling Brad at 866.931.6644 ext. 810 or by sending a message through this forum.

The retractable visor provides great coverage for your eyes.

Adjustable vents at the front direct air into the helmet
While a large exhaust at the back pull hot air away from your head.
The SS1500 allows you to pump air into the pads for a custom fit and to reduce wind noise from the outside.
