wesley_r Posted February 3, 2012 Author Posted February 3, 2012 and an american flag bandana trendsetter... so who's on their way out to buy a Bell Custom 500 then, hmmm? Or do you think Bell are using Gwin to develop a dirt jump lid with more motorcycle-esque styling and coverage?
udxcob Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 That would look so much better with a small peak

(Deon) Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 the helmets are going that way in design. Offering more side protection.. Giro do a droolworth snow lid called the G10 MX.. attached.. but alas our market is not dictating the need so supplier not looking in that direction.. yet. I'm sure there is enough venting to warrant a few hot days in SA.. BUT, I have asked that the Feature is stocked, oooh getting good reviews.
wesley_r Posted February 3, 2012 Author Posted February 3, 2012 maybe I should start riding in my motorcycle helmet...
Azonic Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 That helmet screams Magnum P.I. I swear I'd do a road bunch ride in one of those.
Grebel Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) He can afford to wear an open face helmut because he hasn't got any front teeth to lose.... http://lp1.pinkbike.org/p4pb7230977/p4pb7230977.jpg Notice he was wearing goggles because he still has both eyes... Edit: I saw him at the PMB WC without front teeth. He was wearing a plate with false teeth. Edited February 3, 2012 by Grebel
