As and how the two-wheeler market is developing, so is the motorcycle accessories business. Popular brand Steelbird has provided Indian customers with quality helmets, panniers and luggage accessories at an affordable price for quite some time now.

And now they have launched India’s first Carbon fiber helmet at the price of Rs. 10,000 which is very economic comparatively. Carbon fiber is the one of the toughest and lightest materials in the automotive industry. It is the same material that is used as the body panels of high end sports cars.

Being one of the lightest materials to be used in the industry, it will reduce the fatigue and stress level on the neck and shoulders of the users. The light weight will make it a favorite on long trips where fatigue and stress level induced is high.

In the international market, where the helmet industry is pretty evolved, prices range from 60, 000 and can go northwards of 84, 000 too! A Valentino Rossi replica from AGV will cost you beyond Rs. 85,000/-. In India itself another popular brand Vega has launched a Bluetooth enabled helmet which can be paired to the cell phone as well as another helmet of same make.
