Reviews & Ratings
The reviewer, Henry Chung, provides a detailed review of the SUNRIMOON TT-31 STARSHIP helmet. He states it is a Chinese brand's premium TT/triathlon helmet priced at $249 USD. He highlights its aerodynamic, wind-tunnel-tested shell, a sliding air vent (though finicky to operate), a photochromic magnetic visor that works day or night, an integrated dial fit system, a magnetic clasp, a rubberized 3D padded system, and an ionic antibacterial liner. It is CE and CPSC certified. He notes it weighs 517g, which is heavier than his previous helmet, but found it comfortable and not noticeably heavy during a 2.5-hour ride. He praises its aerodynamic performance, the effectiveness of the photochromic visor, its sleek design, graphics, paint, and excellent build quality. Cons include the difficult-to-operate vent, a strap system he doesn't find the most comfortable, and the fact the visor cannot be stored flipped up and has no parking spot when removed. He concludes it's a legit, original premium product that delivers on comfort, speed, versatility, and design.
