Show Us Your Helmet

Post by woodsypedia » Tue Aug 21, 2018 12:20 am

Some of you will know that I don't wear a helmet in my Atom on the road. That said, I've started doing more and more track work so obviously had a need, and I struggled to find something I really liked - so I had one designed based on a Bell GP3 that I bought. I wanted something that was in keeping with my Gulf stickered up orange panelled and grey framed Atom - but without the usual baby blue traditional Gulf theme. Just need to get a smoked visor to finish it off - but here's the result by the incredibly talented RichArtConcepts. So happy with it.

Come on lads, get em out and show us your helmets ;)

Nice helmet the gp3. Do you know what the difference is between the GTX.3 and the GP3? They both have carbon fibre options.

cheers

Very nice paint job, I can't decide whether to get a carbon lid or matt and get it painted... I don't like the feeling of a heavy helmet which is why I am thinking about the carbon one but they do cost alot more. I did notice in the US the carbon helmets are are $999 so maybe I'll get one from there.

I went with the Roof Boxxer Carbon, in metallic Yellow with an iridium silver (mirrored) visor.

I just got a new helmet to use in my Atom 4. Arai GP6 S. The Arai's seem to fit small heads that are more oval/egg shapped!

I will get it painted as it looks bland in black. The carbon fibre version of this is £3k! so decided not to go for that.

Roof helmet for the road and my Norway flag special for track and racing.
Tbh in the summer, I might go without if I’m just out for a quick blast - but always with ski goggles!
