 |  Ode to Helmets
A lot of us give 'mad props' to our bikes...and well we should. But I figured it would be nice if we started a thread about our current and (hopefully) favorite helmets. Maybe even a few pics thrown in to make it more interesting (you don't have to send a pic of your actual helmet if you don't have it...I'm sure you can find it online if you look). Currently, I have 4 helmets, but only 3 count: 1. My favorite is the Airoh Matthise in Matt Black. This helmet is SUPER light and has an extremely cool ratchet locking mechanism for the Chin Strap. And I can NOT state in words just how COOL looking this helmet is...add that to the snug fit and secure feeling I get when I put it on and yup...this be a winner. http://www.airoh.com/ENGLISH/apribil...isse/MTZ35.htm 2. Second is the Zeus 508W in a Graphic Blue & Silver. I've got 3 visors for this one: Clear, Chrome and Iridium Blue. Great, great helmet!!! http://traxms.com/images/Zeus_508W_X..._group_300.jpg 3. Third is my Caberg Justissimo in sparkly Midnight Black. This helmet costs quite a bit and has some really cool features: Its got a built-in, retractable sun-visor for those sunny rides. It looks GREAT...but somehow, its just not too thrilling a wear to me. So I hardly use it....looking to sell it actually  http://www.caberg-helm.com/home.aspx?xL=e 4. Number 4 is actually my 'novelty' helmet (I never wear it). I got it from JPHelmets and its a retro looking flight helmet thingie. http://www.jphelmet.com/catalogue/co...000/m0000.html So......any takers? |
