Need a new skid lid gents, and ladies, for track, ramp and concrete.
What do you use, suggest, any good bargains etc etc.
I'm after a mid range type of lid.
Pics would be great,
Cheers :coolsmiley:

661 comp. cheap , comfortable, good protection :daumenhoch: see chain reaction ;)

i've had the same pink protec helmet for over 20 years and no problems. :daumenhoch:

I use a THE point 5. Pretty good for £60-70.

THE .5 is a really good helmet, I have crashed very hard in one, I was dazed but was able to get up and get back on my bike, my collarbone went in 2 places .
661 comp is ok, I crashed very hard in one of them too, smashed my wrist to bits but My head had a good whack and was fine (arguably :D) not as much protection as the THE and not as comfy. I use my THE for track, trails and skatepark, it's the best helmet for under £90 IMO, based on performance. :daumenhoch:

If you want a piss pot I recommend the TSG superlight

If you want a full face I recommend the Troy Lee carbon D2
