Jowzam Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I'm starting on my journey to buld a suit of biker armor on a budget so it's going to be a slow go at one piece at a time. I've decided I'm going to start with getting a good helmet to begin. I have a smaller head so from what I've been reading, SC will probably be my best choice. At $274 for the helmet and another $200 for assembly can anyone recommend a more affordable option? Or a Canadian retailer I could order from to help cut down on shipping and exchange?

mmmtoastyboy Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't KS in Canada? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroker Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't KS in Canada? Correct. KS makes a great helmet just a couple simple mods and you'll have a nice helmet. The armour is sub par that should be avoided. The SC helmet isn't hard to put together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Correct. KS makes a great helmet just a couple simple mods and you'll have a nice helmet. The armour is sub par that should be avoided. The SC helmet isn't hard to put together. Yes to all this. In this one area, I can recommend KS. but NOT for armor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spike Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 The Alt is alot less than those figures quoted and is "ready to go out of the box" PM me for more cheers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canterbury Tail Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I do recommend the Altman and wear one myself. Just need to attach a chin strap and you're ready to rock. Very happy with mind (cheers Spike.) I'm Canadian and I ordered it. I didn't even get hit for import duties (though your mileage may vary obviously) and it came in under what you're quoting there for the SC assembled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
