Default biltwell helmet find

Hey gents and gent-ets,
I was in the market for a new helmet going into the winter months, and needed something with ear coverage. I typically run a half lid. I looked around for a good 3/4 and ran across the typical brands. Biltwell stands out for most people, and if you can get over the hipster craze it actually is a good product. I tried one on a couple weeks ago at a buddy's place and really liked it.... long story short, a website called retrobikegear.com had a steal I couldn't pass up.

$59 + shipping = $72 to the door... those of you who shop around know that biltwells, because of their popularity go for $100 and up.



They had several others that you all may wanna check out if your into the vintage helmet thing.

So looking here...
http://retrobikegear.com/biltwell-helmets.html
... It looks like they're claiming their DOT Bonanza Helmets are on sale at $99.95 but that's how much they cost straight from Biltwell.

Edit: I just found your sale
http://retrobikegear.com/new-biltwel...at-copp34.html
Just a heads up, that's the now discontinued Hustler helmet which did not meet certain DOT tests.

Not trying to be a rain on anyone's parade, just shedding some light on the price. You're still going to get a quality Biltwell product and a lot of people out there still love and prefer their Hustler helmets.
