ive had a bell bellistic for about 2 years now and its looking pretty roughed up, so i think a new bucket is in order. personally im leaning towards the giro, or maybe another bell, but they dont make chrome any more any suggestions?

I have a 661 FB, but haven't tried the Giro, nothing to compare to.

It's a good helmet, I am still here!

Any price difference?

I paid 69 for mine off Airbomb, that's what made me choose the 661.
