Helmets

[DKGbond3]

Guys Really need some quick help Going tomorrow or day after to Karol Bagh now budget is 2KLooking for a Good Lid no Flip Ups i need full face lid. Was Looking for Studds,Vega(No Boolean no satisfied with padding) etc

I have booked A GS150 So Need a Lid before i take the delivery on Thurday. All Inputs Appreciated.

Was Looking for Studds Rhyno which looks Good VFM and Cost less as well i think i can Rope in Gloves as well if budget permits. but Don't know if Inner padding is removable Anything in Range of the above budget Which looks Good and All Overall Good in quality. Don't want a Egg size helmet i have one already it looks awful a good Lid with Above things.

p.s have the Studds Open Face Lid XL size no M size even though my head Measures 57cms or M size since I couldn't find Lid of M size.So If Rhyno or any other is available in M will be good and a Price quote will also be good.

first of all, use of punctuation symbols would have made understand your post much quicker!

vega corah is an option; its full face and around 1k.
studds rhyno is good too i guess.
you said not going for flip-ups, else ninja 2g or 3g are good, with very good padding quality.
(btw, removable padding is not an option/feature which many people can make good use of)

My custom helmet

Got bored with the 'graphic' helmets on offer and with no AGV backing me to create a special-edition for me - I decided to 'pen' my own stuff.

Bought an AGV-white, 4 permanent markers >>> my own limited edition (of course it took me almost a year to tatoo my own experiences)

"oh darling, here i come..."




"I am the Creative - Head of helmets.."


ps: Pls dont ask what the designs mean - some are 'cryptic'. So that in 2101AD when archeologists/excavators dig my helmet out - they ll have some work to do.

Though i don't have a big face and really don't want a big lid or egg shaped one looks awful and when i actually remove the lid my Hair is pointing to the Heaven as though i have been electrocuted. Any way Will check it up cross at 2.2k is really tempting.Lets see most probably will get studds to get gloves as well. Chopra has probiking gloves right? what is the cost 600 or more?

You can try Mahalaxmi too,although he quotes high but still no harm in just enquiring.
Try AGV MPA too.


O.T : Gloves are of 600. But he have local ones too of 450something.

[adi231189]

Thanx a lot prateek that's why don't want to go to mahalaxmi since He quotes very high and MPA AGV is not available with Chopra i called him up anyway are the Studds Rhyno good VFM i mean is the padding and Visors Good since my Current Studds helmets has good Padding but Visor has already got some Scratches the Lid is 5 months old but open face so buying a full face now.Going Tomorrow Morning to Chopra What time does he open up since From there going to Pick my Bike From Bitoo Suzuki Delay due to Today being a Holiday.

He opens around 10.30 - 11.00
Try Index too , but Chopra will give you a good VFM helmet
Studda is indeed good but, I would say try vega Corah too

[adi231189]

Okk Index kk I will look into it also but How much will Index Cost? Vega Corah i was also looking But last time i had a Vega the Padding was not satisfactory. So i will surely try Index and Studds.

[adi231189]

Today Went to Chopra's Showed all kinds of Lids Showed Index Was for 1500 Though Padding was nice But Since it didn't have any Certification Didn't take a Chance.Showed Vega Corah Padding Was not good. Then Got hold Of Studds Rhyno 1.2k did try to bargain but he was not even barely interested. Though i think someone said it is costing around 1.1k i think paid 100 bucks etc but anyway 1.2k including balaclava just told him i want to try it since i am not sure if it is good in Summers.

The Rhyno lid White in Color There was another one in Black but didn't like it padding was very good Was heavier than Corah So felt it would be much better Good Fit and Visor are available Easily.Will post pics soon my Cam is Down will take a pic through my Mobile.

p.s Though the Rhyno is Good But i did feel that this lid was incredibly huge like if you put on you will know that for any head size this would look a bit big.I went for it though Since the Budget was there and Corah was really more of looks since the padding was really shoddy even the Chopra guy didn't recommend it.

The helmet looks like a decent one though shell desging is a little odd for my taste, but its you who is buying it not me. You can also check the Studds 2G and 3G in the same price range but both of these are of modular kind and IIRC the price of Studds Rhino is also more or less same, check that too.

@Rakesh: Nice lid. However, please make sure that it is a snug fit. Even a little loose might spell disaster in-case of a mishap. How much is your budget? If price is not that big a concern, you can try out lids from KBC, especially the KBC Hero!
