Kevin,



You want to be careful about buying a used helmet.  The manufacturers

recommend replacing your helmet every 5 years because the materials used

to make the outer shell tend to get brittle.  You may save a few bucks

initially, but the helmet might not be safe soon after.  Plus, how much

are you looking forward to putting your head into someone elses old

sweat bucket?!



Try calling Racer Wholesale at 800.326.0372.  I haven't found anyone

that can beat their prices and their customer service is amazing.

Everyone I've spoken with there is a racer and can give you helpful

advice.  Very professional.
