G Force Pro Eliminator Helmet - LotusTalk

zygotesoup · 10-17-2009, 03:49 PM

Anyone have this helmet? I'm pretty sure this is the one I want to buy, but was wondering if anyone has any feedback on it. Is it comfortable? Visibility etc?

I would go to try one on but there are no dealers anywhere near where I live that sell SA rated helmets

Also, I want to pick up some gloves. Any suggestions? I've heard that outside stitching is a plus. Anything else to look for?

other people opinions wont really mean anything as you dont have the same head as them. different brands fit different people better or worse. You really need to try this type of gear on before buying. That goes for helmets, gloves, suits.......

i understand... but like i said in the OP, there are no dealers around my area that sell SA rated helmets, so i can't try anything on before buying... so I'd like to get some feedback from people who may have some of this gear

I have it and am very happy with it. It is not one of the lighter helmets, though (if you are planning on running long sessions). I bought it for a great deal at saferacer.com

Cheers!
