Posted March 27, 200916 yr Hi everyone im looking for a new helmet as my current one is a bit primative, large and heavy (its a plastic Wulfsport helmet) anyway, ive been looking at some nice MX style helmets (carbon fiber one for £100 in george whites) but none of these seem to have visors, and for me that is a nescessity (sp?). so does anyone know where to find a good, lightweight MX helmet with a visor? (preferably a fibreglass or carbon fiber one)
March 28, 200916 yr I for one have never seen a Moto-X helmet with a visor. The norm is to wear wrap around goggles or shades (I don't mean Biggles style goggles either ) If you want a visor, you're going to be looking for a full face or flip front I'm afraid. Steer clear of open face helmets - your chin is better off where it is
March 28, 200916 yr They're making off-road helemts with a sun peak and a visor now, aka Adventure Helmets (Long way Down style), but they're still pricey: http://www.thevisorshop.com/acatalog/Produ...UR_X3__912.html You may get a different brand more cheaply. Jon
March 28, 200916 yr What about an Arai Tour X? That has a visor. George Whites in Swindon were selling them really cheap but not sure if they still are. Oops.... that's exactly what Jon's said in above post
March 28, 200916 yr I recently bought a new helmet. While shopping I saw many Off-road helmets with visors, like these : http://www.bikebandit.com/assets/product_i...FX18MultiLG.gif Or are you referring to another kind of visor ? Just wondering. :-)
March 28, 200916 yr Author This is the helmet that ive got: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/WULFSPORT-PRIMA-MX-E...A1%7C240%3A1308 it does the job very well, looks quite nice but is pretty heavy and overly big (manufacturers sometimes use the same shell for each helmet but add more/less padding to make the sizes) would rather stick to a moto-X style helmet as it suits the bike a bit better and i prefer having the peak, i dont really want to spend more than £100.
March 28, 200916 yr he said £100 curly girl aria helmets are expensive... i was thinkin about getting one of these for summer http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MONSTER-ENERGY-MOTOR...%3A1|240%3A1318 look amazin 2
