need a new helmet...

joec1

like the fox flux, but cant afford it... (no.. really... i cant)

interested to hear from people about other similarly designed (and slightly chear say.. £50) helmets.

I ride a lot of AM, and Freeride, and already have a Full face. im attracted ot the Fox, due to its rear protection, (little skirt of protection around the back of the head) as well as its good ventalation...

Anyone?

Hex is decent and has a fairly similiar fit to the Flux. Xen is quite differently shaped, I really wanted a Xen but it doesn't fit me even though the Hex is perfect Mind you, I never wear the Hex since I got my Flux but it was a decent helmet and didn't cost me much at all.
