As some of you may/may not know we had our own grille designed to tie in with the shape of the helmet. DUe to the fact were not putting a massive mark up on them like the other brands they are available for £30.00 + P&P (£2.00).
They also fit an Albion or Masuri helmet due to the fact we realised alot of people already have the shell but may look to buy a lighter/stronger grille as an addition to it. At 175 grams they are lighter than the Albion titanium grille and maintain the 45mm-55mm gap specificed by the BSI safety standard between the peak and grille.
I have put up some pictures below so that you can see what they are like.

Any questions please ask :)

As a limited period offer we are going to do a 10% discount to forum members of the cost of the Titanium grills. Making them £27.00 each + P&P.
With a weight of 175 grams they will dratically reduce the weight of your helmet that currently uses a steel grille.
PM me if your interested.

Hi, do these look just like the Masuri grills so it could tie into people's Masuri's?
-
they fit masuri's but arnt like masuri's,
any odds how much postage to Aus ;D
na only jokin walshy
-
No worrys mate.
-
Yeh kind of a hybrid as the pro's preferred one to the other so incorporated a bit of both into the design. Making sure that they were able to fir onto a masuri as well as an albion helmet should people wish to buy a grille who dont have an Ayrtek helmet.
P.S Postage to Oz is about £7.00 ;) ;D
-
What about them fiting on a 98 Albion as these are making come back.
-
Havent got one to hand to check with, but as the albion 98 grille is what Sangakkara is currently using on our helmet im sure that it will go the other way as well ???
-
What ear pads does the grill come with?
-
Havent produced ear pads for it as no one seems to want them from what we found out from the Pro's
-
Doo Masuri ear pads fit them?
-
Yes mate they are basically the same size to slot in
-
IS sangakkarra sponsored by ayrtek?
-
He wears out Elite helmet yeah, so do a few other Pros on both the county and International circuit
-
im warming to aytrek kit, cant wait to see the tradiiontal style helmet
-
Picking up the SLS of it this week so will get some preview pictures up when i have laid my hands upon it. Have you guys seen the artwork for the traditional version that was produced?
-
yeah looks pretty good, abit like a albion cross over sort of thing
-
Yeah feedback from the Pro's has been that they like the ACIS technology which improves the safety and fit of the helmet paired with the lightweight shell provided by the carbon fibre.
If they could have something a bit more traditional they would be a bit more drawn to wearing it. Early stages of development though at the moment as you can see. Something that crosses over from the Albion design which has been used since 1994 as well as the Masuri but with a few tweaks to it to progress the design with a purpose in mind.

Grille offer still available had a few people emailing about them so just thought i would let everyone know they can still be snapped up for £27.00 + £1.75 P&P. A good £20-£25 cheaper than any other titanium grille out there and will fit most models of helmet
-
Has anyone got a masuri titanium grill that they can weigh for me? i think they are around the 160 gram mark but not 100% as i havent ever got hold of one.? Or if anyone knows the weight of it?
Any help with this appreciated :-)
-
154 grams mine is
-
Cheers Samuel, just wondered what they were in comparism to ours and Albions.
-
had a few people off the forum buy the titanium grill now so hoping they are happy with them, a few new pictures as below for those who havent seen it as yet....

-

-
Afraid stickers for the helmet are in short supply at the moment will post down some more stickers though for you shortly.
-
ok cheers m8 yer im gunna give it a test on satdee but so far its a lot lighter than my old one
-
Thinking of introducing an offer " Go Ti for a Tenner" when purchased with any helmet (exclusively for forum members and friends etc who may have been recommended).
Would this sway people towards purchasing an Ayrtek helmet if they could save £20 off the price of a titanium grill and get their hands on the helmet as part of the package? or is having a Ti grill a luxury people are willing to do without!
-
Do it :-)
-
Agreed
-
Its a great idea! If I were spending that money on a top range helmet (which I may do very soon) then I would want the Ti grill for sure.
I noticed that the helmet doesn't seem to have a 'black' option? And yet, some of the pics show the helmet in black?
-
If the option of a Ti Grille was available for just a tenner extra I would defiantly shell out.
If the offer is still on at the time, I expect I will purchase a Ti Grille when I purchase my traditional style helmet
-
Pete
There isnt a black option on the website as blur, green, white and maroor are stock colours we produce. The pcitures on the website are of a blue helmet, if you wanted a black one however im sure we can cater for this at no additional charge.
Thanks for the feedback regarding the "Ti for a Tenner" thought! Will look into implimenting it for forum members.
Cheers
Tom
-
Thanks Tom
Good to know about the colour and the tenner option!
I am pretty sure that a number of us will take it up!
-
certainly hope so Pete will keep me busy if you do, with the new shell due next week and a few toerh things to sort out it will give me an excuse to put off the dreaded Xmas shopping!!!!!
