Steelbird Helmets recently launched the new SA-2, 2-in-1 helmet in the Indian market. The two-wheeler helmet comes with a price tag of INR 4,499. The brand also reveals that the helmet comes with a BIS (IS 4151:2015) certification complying with the Indian Standards Institution (ISI). Steelbird offers the SA-2 helmet in three sizes – Medium (580mm), Large (600mm), and XL (620mm). Interested customers can purchase the new helmet via Steelbird’s official online website or their outlets across India.
The Steelbird SA-2 Helmet comes with a sporty design with an aerodynamic shape and a new graphic theme. The helmet features a gloss effect offering a premium helmet look. The intermediate oval shape of the helmet and the rear end design add a lot of appeal to the helmet and is quite popular with the younger generation riders. Adding sportiness to the helmet are the aero fins on the back which also add to the aerodynamic properties making the helmet slipper and adding to the stability at high speeds.
The Steelbird SA-2 helmet also comes with vents on the chin, forehead and on top of the lid. The vents are shuttable and do an excellent job of bringing fresh air into the lid. The helmet in the review video came with a clear visor and Steelbird is also offering you a clear pinlock with an Anti-Fog Shield Visor. However, there is no inbuilt sunshade in this helmet, but users can easily slide in their sunglasses thanks to the compliant internal padding.
The SA-2 is a multi-weather helmet and comes with a winder padding liner with a detachable neckpad. The liner is waterproof as well and is easily detachable with press clip locking. Steelbird also offers the SA-2 with a a summer interior trim. The helmet weighs 1350 grams +/- 50 grams and comes with a very useful visor lock, for added safety. This makes the SA-2 an all-weather companion but it does miss out on one thing. The Steelbird SA-2 does not offer a double-D-ring and instead comes with a micrometric fastner.
