I had Clay Porter work on this D4 project, pretty cool to have the guy making the story of the Daytona (D2, D3, D4...) be from a guy that's always worn one haha.

Troy Lee Designs D4 teaser : : Feb 12th launch
- Thread starter stiksandstones
- Start date
They still way ahead of SpecialED. It is impossible to get pads, visors or any spares for their helmets. The main reason I dropped them for TLD and now for POC. For me, it was not impossible (but challenging) to find spares for TLD, so if you find better buy two of everything just to make sure. However, ie. for the Stage they supply loads of optional pads, which I think is awesome, I did not see others doing that, but yeah my sample size is insignificant.
Do you really need a helmet teaser? It's a safety item, you buy them because you need them, they aren't cool.
Next Takata will be putting out a teaser for their new airbag that doesn't throw shrapnel at you.

I agree but with everything you said but I take it you dont work in marketing?
I've been trying to buy some helmet liners for years, for the A1.
Have never seen them in stock on TLDs website and the orders I've placed at local shops never go anywhere.
I think Jenson had some, but they won't ship them to canada.
marketing is great but i wish more helmet mnfgs would publish test data on various safety certifications.
Seeing how they are a business I would guess they increased it enough to make a nice profit?
Id even go a step further and make it mandatory...
here in Freedumb™ Land more regulations are basically terrorism
For a helmet this iconic, yes.
I will be purchasing one to replace my very worn D3 Stik...

That would be...cool, except the legal risk you open up with that is tricky. You can see our A1 and A2 helmets (the only brand to have 2 helmets in the top 5 of all MTB helmets tested) with test algorithm that even adds rotational impact-and even this is disputed/argued about, you can never win. We all have to pass all of the standards and we always do so with flying colors to go above and beyond.
Thanks dude, Troy and the team worked hard to improve an icon.
Maybe because of it's compact size, but, bigger allows you to create better energy management, we prototyped some new impact foam with the D4, I think it would have changed the game-but---too heavy, like even if we dropped 1/2 the weight, it would be soooo heavy. Moto and Rev pants, our GP is still pretty damn roomy and gangsta.
Please hold, checking the PO's
JUST CHECKED PO'S;
Feb 15th they will be online and shipping to dealers a bit before that and our intl customers will have them probably within days.

The cynical part of me is irritated by the marketing speak here, but at the same time I also get the need for protecting certain aspects of proprietary design and test information. I'm not trying to single you guys out here, I just wish there was more transparency & consistency across the boards when it comes to disclosing exactly how things are tested & what the results are, and more so how they are interpreted and what resulting claims are being made (case in point the kerfuffle when wavecel launched). that being said, i'm glad to see there's finally more progress being made to improve helmet safety. at the end of the day, the last thing i want to see is people getting injured and suffering MTBI.
i know you can't disclose it, but this has me curious. i work a fair amount with various foams in my line of work.
No, I was supposed to be in a bit of trouble at work today for rubbishing a brand we sell, but you can't really get in trouble if you just flat out don't give a fuck.
Some of the brands we represent copy existing designs from established brands and make them to very poor standards in the Far East, so they will sell zero units through me.
Play the long game, support people that make good stuff, fuck marketing, stats FTW!

True, but that bike was made for the kind of people rocking a Met Parachute with sunglasses.
I don't see a brand logo on the glasses clearly enough, this cannot be a TrueDente.True, but that bike was made for the kind of people rocking a Met Parachute with sunglasses.
Only if DOT certified for motorbikes
for who? a 12yr old kid?
They're really not.
They taper like your son's girlfiend's jeans.
Ie. They're too tight on the calf muscles
I can barely get knee pads under them. knee/shins no chance!
Tell Troy to do a re-run of the old proper gangsta (non tight ankle) troos in 34 in plain BLACK for some old emo off the internet... it's not like anything needs designed
