Is there much diffrence between X-line and ELite? Considering I'm looking at the Elite in a steel grill anyways?

Edit: It appears X-line has been discontinued

There's a thread on it here Aman.

You can probably still find them knocking about, but I don't think there'll be many.

Oh yeah, so not much difference. I found one site that still have the titanium X-line but still priced quiet steeply but no steel grills

Yeah, can see why they discontinued it.

I can find a steel one, but only in Green. £97. Titanium, also green £132.

Go with Masuri. I recently switched from Forma to Masuri. Initially it would feel heavy but after a while you won't notice the weight on the head. Visibility will be different compared to Forma, but couple of nets and you will be used to it.

I tried my friend's Shrey helmet and it is bit tighter than Masuri (comparing large size models in both). Feels lighter but I feel more comfortable with Masuri.

Visibility would be different how? Can you comment on the comfortability compared to the Forma?

Yeah looked at it. The marked down price works out to be the same anyways compared to other sites.

Woke up early on my week off so thought I'd look for you. Found this I'm unsure on the website as I've never used it but it's the cheapest I found by around £5

Masuri has all the features which Forma has. Soft padding with a nice back strap to adjust the fit.

The grill on my Forma doesn't comply with the new UK standards. So the grill feels more closer to my face and I keep trying to look over the grill to get good visibility.

However on the Masuri the grill is perfectly aligned with the tip of the hat so there is bit of a gap between the grill and our face. The double grill is lined up horizontally, so when you wear the helmet it looks like a single piece. After a while it felt like I am starting to see through the grill. I never had that feeling with Forma though ...

Don't get me wrong. Forma is a good quality helmet but it's quite difficult for me to get them in US. So was looking for alternatives and Masuri fits all my requirements.
