Sethgun Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 (edited) Hi guys, Its the one that whackjob 100% brumotti wears thats sponsored by gaymornio armani. Im after a new lid and really want a beak to stop my face gettin smashed and sun, and still have back head protection like a pisspot. Just really really really wanna know if someone knows the make and model of it, and if itss an onld helmet? I gathered it was a limar x-gen helmet but def not. Really wanna get one or try it n see if its what im after. Nice, basic styling, removeable beak, and doesnt look like a spaceship. Cheers Edited April 17, 2010 by Sethgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 My guess is that it's something like a 661 pisspot with a motocross visor bolted on... Don't think you'll be bale to buy one exactly like that. Have you considered a Giro Semi-MX or whatever they were called? Along the same lines... Also the 661 ReCon: Edit: Pro-tec Ace Dig? Also similar and probably closest to Vittorio's lid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethgun Posted April 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 yeh but main reason i like his is because it scoops up tight at the back of your head, u know what i mean? like it doesnt bulge out, it sorta flows right down the back of ur head with little to no gap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the trials mop Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 Theres a troy lee design thats kinda like that, its called the D2 openface, http://www.allterraincycles.co.uk/product/108752.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeanuckleJive Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 yeh but main reason i like his is because it scoops up tight at the back of your head, u know what i mean? like it doesnt bulge out, it sorta flows right down the back of ur head with little to no gap it probably looks so smooth and close because he has long hair The semi MX looks like your best bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroMatt Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 (edited) The semi MX looks like your best bet Seeing as they were discontinued in 05 they are almost impossible to find. The THE Industries F-14 is the closest I could find to a Semi MX when looking recently. Edited April 17, 2010 by ZeroMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethgun Posted April 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 heres another couple of the helmet. What the fruckus is it? Ive tried alot of those mentioned helmets (even that older gyro one) but just dont like the fit. Visor looks mega wide and the whole thing just looks like its a mega narrow fit which is the main thing im after. I know helmets are all gonna b sorta bulky lookin bc of all the padding, but this just seems diff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Foamoi Refresher Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 maybe he's just got a really really small head, which makes it look as though the helmet is smaller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sethgun Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 response from limar customer service: " Hi George Vittorio uses a Cruiser BMX model but without the… chin part and with front visor of the… Nutcase model ! An original solution as the original is... Vittorio. Ciao " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 The bmx helmet is pretty nice on it's own. It's cool that the chin bit is removeable too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethgun Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 yeh thats what im thinking, its a more form fitting like a full face helmet (ie doesnt look like a mushroom on ur head) and the whole chin is removeable and lid can be replaced. Pretty niceley priced too! Think im gonna have to sort one...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethgun Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 cant find this limar nutcase visor for sale seperate anywhere though....its nice deep n wide. Anyone seen a site? His is the older version as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethgun Posted April 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 then i got bored at work and photoshopped the new version with and without chinguard lol. f**k i need a new job but f**k it pays well to do not alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
