thefelixculpa 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2007 Helmet shopping, not looking for anything too expensive.I see this helmet is going for 50 cageless on most sites.Would this be a good buy? I went to my LHS and they just had Bauer 4000, 5000 in my price range, didn't really like the fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Protection is great and if you like the fit, i'd say go for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DamnLocust 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 Hook, I know you love the 4500, but it's not for everyone. seeing as he didn't like the 4000, it's a pretty safe bet the 4500 won't be on his list either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 Did you try the NBH 4500?If an 892 fits him, the 4500 won't and vice versa. They are light-years apart in terms of fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blues_91 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 Just throwing this out there- the Mission M95 pro is almost about the same in price, and might be another helmet to consider. Try to get to another store, or if you must order online, try on a team mate's helmet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBLfan 25 Report post Posted July 12, 2007 I'm pretty sure that if they have a sticker that they have to be certified. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
