You're right saying the Xen is the best lid for the money but it isnt in his budget. The e2 is a mint helmet with great all round performance and for that price. Go for it mate!! Now I've seen it at such a low price I might get it, since I'm riding with a TSG tag bright green pisspot Oli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
