Abhi to get a good quality Croos helmet's visor either visit Helmet Paradise or Megha Enterprises on JC Road.
Cross Helmet Visor Costs you around 640/-.
Cheaper once are not the good quality once as it easily gets scratches/dent and they are dont have much life.

Oh glad to hear so! I kept wondering if I paid too much and got tricked..

Go to any place other than Helmet's paradise.
The buggers cheated me, and I would suggest everybody to stay away from them.
This is my experience, in case other's have had good experience, doesnt mean that we should continue to encourage them.
My 2 cents, try any other place other than the cheats in Helmet Paradise

Sorry to mention it but after a very long break, just reunited and started riding again as xBhp bangalore representatives so we are keeping a count of it.
Slowly Slowly from sept'13 riders are showing interest and are riding and exchanging their experiences through these rides and offline G2Gs.
You can even see in some previous pages planning for the earlier rides and pics shared by some good rider-cum-clickers like suvra, divya,snehith, sunil, lohith and many more.

Hope you also join

Lohith, just for curiosity sake, how exactly where you cheated? (Could be a pointer to most who might consider going there or anywhere else in the future)
[MENTION=53321]abhi7013[/MENTION], just in case megha doesn't have it, check with the adjoining store, that's owned by the megha helmets owners son... good chap :thumbup:

Excuse me for interrupting me in between, well everyone has there own experiences.
Also it matters how we are tackling with vendors, and judging the product with our own basic knowhow.
In JCRoad Helmet Paradise and Meghna Enterprises are the biggest vendors in selling helmets(atleast) and they keep both original and compromised products.

I myself use a Coss helmet and have purchased visor from there and didnt faced any problem.
Do look other places other than JCRoad for helmets, like Lets Gear Up, X-Torque, Thirumalla.
Check in Helmets section also.

The only reason why i was doubting of being cheated was that the tint used to vanish within a month and a half. And the glass turns transparent within 2 months. I had a doubt if they were genuine until someone pointed out that visors for cross are of low quality and advised to switch over to LS2 helmets. Switching helmets for just the visor issue seemed kinda foolish to me.. But now that the helmet is old and the visor keeps closing itself whenever i hit high speeds or go on a hump, i guess it's time to change to LS2.

re: The Official Bangalore Offline Meet (G2G) Thread

i guess it's time to change to LS2.

P.S - If going for an LS2, ensure that you do NOT buy the FF351 model. It shows 4 star SHARP ratings, but LS2 themselves have admitted that they haven't crash tested this model and they have simply assumed it. Also, SHARP has cleared the confusion saying that it has not received that model for testing.

Get FF350. This is a worldwide issue and you can be a prey at Megha, Helmet's Paradise or Lets Gear Up! Thought of making you and others aware.
For more details, PM Sunnyside_Up or search Helmets thread. It was discussed there recently.
