But, the thought, design and materials all need to be top class - a helmet protects your head, after all. So, we visited the KASK factory find out how the helmets are made and the technology behind them

    Thank you. More factory tours please. I love seeing how our equipment is made and it helps me understand why it's so darn expensive too.

    • @fabferrari
      @fabferrari 3 года назад +2

      I am pretty much sure by her words and her body gesture that she was asking the confirmation about the fact that (presumably) she was reported by someone that a third person, perhaps not even related to the video, went smoking. Please consider that those are real people in the real world, not professionals acting to make the story more beautiful in the eyes of the audience. Please also consider that in Italy some short breaks during the normal working shifts are part of the collective labor contact. Last, but not least, since the helmet is something that we, bicycle riders, put over our heads to protect a pretending to have brain (someone doesn’t have or doesn’t get it connected with their fingers when typing comments), I would not expect her to be professional in a video like this but instead to be in doing her job diligently. All the best!

    A commenter below disparaged the color, saying "green hats are unlucky in China", oddly. Well...
    ...it's CHARTREUSE (like the French liquor) :-) And a great highly-visible color for low-light conditions.
    What's "unlucky" is not wearing one, when a tumble occurs!

      ***** you cant see 10fps. They shoot in PAL so it goes from 24fps to 50fps however ntsc goes from 30fps to 60fps, you cant see any difference between them. industry standard is PAL so thats why they use it.

      Matt Burkey Yeah used to work in that heat all the time, not pleasant, plus my factory was a damn site more noisier! Looks like they've got mandatory breathing PPE due to all the micro-fibres, ours was mandatory hearing - and hairnets as we were a FMCG* company (which they're not worried about here).

    I bought KASK MOSITO, but that is so bad by finishing materials. It was quit expensive so I expecting that will be perfect condition for sure. Ofcourse the helmet is lightweight and looking good i mean appear. But the detail of helmet is totally sucks. I don't know the helmet made by china but on the helmet, they still Italian flag on it. So now I'm a man who is miserable person in here. If you have a plan to by MOSITO, It's better to be hesitate to buy it. Thanks
