Title: Looking for lightweight helmet
Post by: LBWCandidate on September 21, 2017, 06:14:04 PM
What would the fellows suggest?
- Lightweight
- Head circumference 22 to 22.5 inches (Feels like youth size as my current senior helmet is loose and I have to tie bandana)
- Not too expensive including shipping to USA
- None of the bowls actually get to the head height unless its a beamer or edge onto the helmet

Can you provide a budget when you say “not too expensive”?

Hopefully under or around 100 USD.

If you're not looking for anything new I have a nice hardly used med-large Albion Elite Pro with Ti grille if you're interested.

Sturdy peak and you can alter the grille to as sensible as you like. Feels like almost nothing weight wise. <600gr from memory.

Looked at the measurements. Slightly bigger for my head. Thanks though!

My mistake. I've checked and it's a small 54cm-59mm.

It's this model. https://www.maceysports.co.uk/albion-elite-pro-titanium-cricket-helmet.html (https://www.maceysports.co.uk/albion-elite-pro-titanium-cricket-helmet.html)
