The head cradle on my Bell Sweep keeps popping out of the the shell, so I'm looking for a replacement.
Paid about £50 for this one in the sale, but now it seems they're a lot more.
Are there any good deals (circa £50) on helmets that have a removable peak and look ok both on and off-road??
Needs to be a large / xlarge size as my head is just over 60cm.
I had a bell r sweep (fnarr). Well think it was called that. Was comfy anyhow. Replaced it with a specialized echelon. Fitted well. Now got specialized propero 2. Again fits great. Maybe look at a specialized if the bell is a good fit.
I swore by my Giro Athlon when I used one lid for road and off-road. They're going for £50-60.
All the large Atlons look like they're close to full price at £90+. Only the smalls are around £50 🙁
Ideally needs to have a peak for mtb and remove peak for road. Specialized might be out on that basis.
Yeah just looked. They do a tactic that's in budget. Mtb only though. I had a Scott helmet with removable peak until recently. Hated the fit though so sold it.
I started with a Sweep & went to a Volt - even better comfort & fit.
If your willing to spent a little more for a better helmet Ribble have a Large in Silver/Green Rocker for £70. (removable peak)
Specialized S3?
Specialized S3. Looks great. But OP has budget of £50. Not £100 😀
Specialized align?? Only £30 with removeable pic in multi colours
Just bought a Specialized Echlon yesterday - very happy with fit, comfort & weight.
Bang on budget too - doubt you'll find better for £50, unless you get one on sale.
