Default Dispatch Riders Helmet

Sterling, the guys are all correct - steel helmets are not legal and I would not trust a cheap repro on my head, irrespective of speed.

If you have a $10 head, wear a $10 helmet.

I use a Davida 'Classic' helmet. Hand made and absolutely top quality. Mind you, it still does not conform to any safety standards.

Original helmets are readily available in the UK and for not much more than a repro. They turn up here regularly so I'd suggest that you keep looking?

What upturn at the brim?
