Hey guys

Just wanted to get you opinions on the masuri elite steel grill. I'd go for the titanium but the price is way out of my league.
And also if there any good deals out there on the Masuri VS Elite Steel grill

Thanks guys!

If you're set on a masuri then the double bar actually has better visibility than the single, and you can't see the 2nd bar when you're wearing it (assuming you wear it correctly). The weight difference between the two is pretty much non-existent si you don't notice the difference when wearing them.

If it's got to be a Masuri, the cheapest new I can find is via Lorimers on EBay. In all colours, link here:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/172008916695

But, there is one a fiver cheaper, only in navy and I don't know the seller so can't vouch for them. Never had a problem with Lorimers.

Bit like Eliot says, plenty of bargains on here if you ask around.

Edit: misread the question

thought you were after the double bar. But as mentioned, the double bar is worth the extra. If only for peace of mind should you find the ball getting much bigger as it homes in on your forehead.

Cheers for spelling my name right mate ! Normally takes 10 goes at that. Agree all you have to do is ask and somebody will be able to give you advice. I was set on a masuri but once I spoke to ayrtek I just thought why not and for a considerably better helmet (I was looking at lowest possible masuri) I'm happy with my new lid

Hmm yeah looking at the Masuri double grill steel version. I just like the overall look of it. Have you worn one, hows the padding/comfort? I currently own a Froma Titanium and the comfort for that extremly nice plus the adjustabel strap.

Does Masuri still have the adjustable strap?

Edit: Yeah I'm looking for one in navy.

Haha, no worries mate. Must admit, when I first saw you pop up on the forum I thought you'd spelt it wrong yourself! 😂

If you're open to suggestions Aman, I've got a Shrey Masterclass Air Steel and I rate it, never tried on the Masuri though, and I hear the build quality is superior though I can't find anything wrong with my Shrey.

Yeah I'm open!

I was actually debating the Shrey to the Masuri but after looking at the prices which were pretty similar, thought the Masuri was a more solid helmet.

As far as I'm aware they have an adjustable strap. ItsJustCricket do some excellent reviews of the Masuri on thier YouTube channel that would be worth a watch to give you a better idea. See what you're saying about the price, I was set on a double bar Masuri but found the Shrey at a ridiculous price in the PDC end of season sale (Think I got it for around 60 quid) otherwise I'd be in the Masuri fan club!

Was about to say the exact same thing! Btw, seen you approaching that 100 post milestone. Fields come in...

So I take it the ayrtek is out the question buddy?

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the design. I like the fabric on my helmets and the more traditional shape!

But thanks though!

Yeah finally feel like I can suggest things and have a little say. Really enjoying being on here today think I've gone from 80 to 105 posts quickly today. All seem a good bunch of blokes to have a decent chat about cricket with. Also in reference to the field coming in. Bad idea mate. I don't take well to that [emoji23]
