swanny180 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Well, I'm due for a new helmet..so, this is what i'm gonna do.. 1:I'm goin to be really anal and take a small set of digital scales! that will sort out the weight part of the battle for me.. 2: then I'm gonna annoy the daylights out of the staff and try on EVERY helmet in the whole store! 3: I'm NOT gonna read a single price tag or brand until I have a top 3 helmets sitting on the bench that fit the best. 4: Be happy that i just bought the the best helmet i could find! 5: Take steps to look after new helmet: like buying a bag.. (coz I'm sure it will end up sending me broke!) 6: Take steps to reduce the chance of me needing that new helmet. Did i forget anything? Dont buy the bag for the helmet If you are nice about it and ask for one, you'll likely pick one up (especially if youre buying an expensive helmet) for free Otherwise sounds fairly comprehensive. I genuinely believe that the helmet that will protect you best is largely the one that fits you best... So sounds like you are well on your way to a good choice Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/156168-helmets/page/5/#findComment-3496106 Share on other sites More sharing options...

260DET Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Gforce open face car helmet with Snell compliance, can't remember exactly what it cost ~US$150? I like it, nice helmet to put on and wear, got some vents in it which makes it fairly cool. Would buy again.
