I have 2 HJC RPS/RPHA 10's. Both Ben Spies replicas. They are great helmets bang for the buck wise. And they're good enough for Lorenzo and Spies, so.......

I always look for snell approved or ECE certified as the minimum requirement. There's no reason to pay $700 for a helmet though.

I have a Arai corser air sitting in its sock collecting dust. I think it's a Xl. It's white and black. If you want it PM me.
