According to Snell, a capable company has always been able to build a helmet which would satisfy both Snell and DOT standards, but not Snell and ECE 22-05. Larger sized helmets with head sizes of 60 cm and up might be able to meet both Snell and ECE 22-05, but this becomes more difficult for smaller sizes, where it is impossible to meet both sets of requirements.
As a result, Snell certified motorcycle helmets are currently allowed for European racing but not for European street riding. Thus, manufacturers who make Snell certified helmets cannot bring their Snell models into Europe. If they want to sell helmets in Europe, they have to build separate, non-Snell helmet versions.
For the same reason, Europeans street riders do not have access to Snell levels of protective performance. Like it or not, they must wear helmets meeting the ECE 22-05 standard, even though the ECE 22-05 standard may, in some regards, offer less protection than even the DOT standard.
Snell M2010 "World Helmet"?
The new Snell M2010 standard resolves this problem. Once it takes effect, manufacturers will be able to build helmets which will satisfy DOT, ECE 22-05 and Snell simultaneously.
The chief virtue of the Snell M2010 standard is that it will enable a “world helmet” which will provide Snell levels of protection to riders in Europe as well as in North America.
For street riders in North America, the differences between M2010 and M2005 should be of little significance. M2010 does not exceed M2005 but it does demand comparable protection. But for street riders in Europe, M2010 may make a considerable difference.
For the first time in years, they may be able to choose helmets which satisfy all the local regulations and provide a premium of protective capability over and above local requirements. Helmets certified to the M2010 standard and ECE 22-05 will provide protection comparable to M2005 and will qualify for sale and use in the UK and Europe.
The new and improved M2010 motorcycle helmet standard is an effort to prevent unnecessary brain and head injury through better headgear, which has been Snell’s mission for over 50 years.
看來SNELL之前在歐洲地區還蠻有爭議的 直到snell m2010才讓他們完全認可
可以明顯看出為什麼有些SIZE沒辦法通過SNELL 還有前文提到有些SIZE沒辦法同時通過雙認證
耐受撞擊能量
單點撞擊能量耐受度
小弟英文程度也不是很好 有錯請指正!!
結論似乎是SNELL M2010將會是全面性的認證
可以說是安全取向的首選認證
