Ben John-Hynes Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 I can't help with your question. But the astronaut comment made me laugh.Why are you planning on using a piss pot? As opposed to an XC jobby? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Powell Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 At the end of the day most helmets are going to stick out a fair bit, my xen does, but its okay, sticks out alot less than a koxx piss pot. Go for an xen or e2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyb Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I just bought the new boardman xc lid and i have to say its awesome, so light. Never understood the attraction of piss pots myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 moment of madnesss me thinks...i want one but with lowwwwwwwww profilleTSG Evolution! They're more of an oval, head shaped helmet than the traditional perfect half-sphere piss-pots. http://www.ukbikestore.co.uk/Product/0/tsg...tionhelmet.htmlI've got a camo one somewhere from when I used to do dirt jumping.

Simpson Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 isit the clear shell one? 2nd from top? that looks like the one my mates got thats really thin profile?yep some of the models dont have the "polystyrene" type filler inside it, which obv. reduces the protection it offers, but gives you a really tight fit and thin profile. Ramp riders use them who go 20 foot up in the air so sure it will be fine'ish for trials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Yea protech for sure need to import from USA though still I belive?Nope, Split Second are the importers now.Have you considered a Protec Cyphon? Seems you're after a pisspot but this is kinda best of both,http://www.allterraincycles.co.uk/product/111919.htmlhttp://www.jejamescycles.co.uk/protec-cyph...ne-id47116.htmlIf you look around you could probably find a good deal.
