    HJC Carbon helmet

    I bought this helmet last year in a moment of weakness (read impulse buy...) and didn't take the time to ensure a good fit. Unfortunately, while it is a great helmet and much lighter than my Arai, it is one size too large for a head with no accompanying hair. I can wear it with a balaclava but without one it is just too loose, consequently I have only worn it 4 or 5 times and have had to go back to my old helmet.
    The size is Large (58 to 60 cms)
    These normally sell for around $800 to $900 but I will be happy to take $295 (only on Kiwibiker)

    I have one of these, mine is now 4 years old and I love it to bits. Still fits well, even if my flatmates managed to pinch it once and ALL try it on, so A+ on retaining foam shape. It's light, relatively quiet, and quite possibly one of the best helmets in that price segment, and a steal at that price, I would buy it just to have a newer duplicate, but alas, bike repairs come first

    Sorry, I haven't checked this for a while. Yes it's still for sale at the moment, but if it doesn't sell by the end of the month I will keep it.

    Thanks to a time waster this is now still for sale (and for considerably less than the one currently on tardme...)
    Comes with proper helmet bag.
