Looking for a quick release strap for a modular helmet - any ideas?
I have tried a quick release from https://www.amazon.com/Helmet-Releas...7762600&sr=8-1 for a full modular helmet but it is a bit too loose for my satisfaction. Does anyone know of a quick release that would work better for a modular helmet?
Thanks

There are a couple other styles but they all add at least 1 inch to the loop under your neck.
I ended up buying my carbon lid with quick release from Europe because the same USA model was D-ring.

When I was Vending I bought a bunch on E-bay for about $ 2.00 ea. .... they arn't as big as that one ..... it did require you cutting off the " D " rings and sewing it on .... but sewing isn't rocket science .... ..... JMHO .... Mike

I have 2 helmets. a Full Face and a Modular. I use this release on both helmets.
No cutting of the D Rings is needed.

This is the model of add-on quick release buckle I have used.

Very sturdy -- in fact, it's pretty stiff until you use it awhile. But it works fine, with no cutting required.

Just wondering which "full modular helmet' dosnt come with a quick release strap these days?
I previously had a Nolan then went to Evoline with the fully folded back chin bit if ya wanted to,
latest helmet is a LS2 Valiant, which I find great by the way.
All had the quick release catch as SOP.

For one, the HJC C90 modular. The USA version in Carbon Fiber comes with D rings but the Europe version has quick-release.
AND the US lid is over $100 more.

I've used one that's all metal in the actual attachments with just a little plastic cover. I've had all plastic clip's in the past and they have broken..............

But where can the poor suckers in the States buy a Europe version? What would the shipping cost be?

Not all the Europe versions are quick-release. Look at https://hjchelmets.eu/products/rpha-12-carbon. That one is DOUBLE-D RING

Once upon a time, I bought a quick release buckle for a full face helmet because it was so hard trying to thread the D rings up under the edge of the helmet. It worked, but where it had to be attached to the D rings put the buckle in a place that bit into the edge of my jawbone.
Take whatever moral you want to from this fable.
