Default Bell drop weight

Anyone know how much a bell drop helmet weights? I've see about 1000 grams/2.2 lbs and 400 grams/.9 lbs. Not sure which one is accurate

Thanks a bunch

I have a helemet like that one. The Bellistic. It's like 4 or maybe even less pounds.

I can weigh mine in the morning but between a Charly No-Limit and a Bell Drop with a similar thickness faceshield, both helmets sized medium, the weight difference feels pretty negligible.
4 pounds is way heavy... These things aren't. I'm gonna say the 1000 gram estimate is about right.

Charly no-limit is about 1.5 lbs. Not bad

Bell itself says the drop is 1048 grams... That sounds pretty on the money.
