Chris Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 especially when you attach some tassles to the back! I don't like how the iron is so cold tho'. I get frosbite on my ears:mad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big canuck Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 That's a mtn. bike helmet. Try Dukes. He's in TO. Isn't he? They really came down in price for '05. Last year they retailed for $240. This year $170.00. Canadian that is. Nice helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big canuck Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 If you havent bought from the states before... Be aware. You'll have to pay shipping, GST, Brokerage costs and duty. I dont know about PST. Just so you know. KC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleevez Posted February 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Thanks for all the replies. well i was browsing on the giro site.. that helmet is a boardercross lid. so i thought it would be sweet to ride with.. and yeah i don't really wanna get it shipped from the state. but i don't know if there are any local shops that will carry them...

I was tryin larges with other giro helmets, and the large in this one felt a bit snug, but again only in the jaw area. just seemed like way too much unless youre racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Originally posted by sleevez and yeah i don't really wanna get it shipped from the state. Just make sure that they send it by regular post. UPS ground will charge you a $40 brokerage fee on top of the tax/duty, and Fedex is $30 I think. USPS/Canada Post is $5.
