Submitted by norcorider95 a Weekend Warrior from London

Date Reviewed: February 14, 2010

Strengths:    Seems decent, i've been using it for around 2 years, i started to do XC on it and it was fine, then used it for bmx and it still was good, now using it for Dirt jumps, short dowhill runs, freeriding and i still like it.
one fits all is easy cause i won't have to change it because it gets to small.


Weaknesses:    its quite wide as one fits all.
it fits me but straps seem quite short.
scratches fairly easily.


Bottom Line:   
very versatile helmet and i reccomend it to anyone who does multiple types of riding.
or if your just looking for a cheap but good helmet.

Date Reviewed: August 12, 2009

Strengths:    The helmet is comfortable and the one size fits all removable padding makes finding the right fit easy.

Weaknesses:    Straps are short, could be longer and needs some reflective logos or strips on it, also more colors choices.

Bottom Line:   
I always ride with my head protection, so if you want a stylish and comfortable skater style helmet this for you. The only problem i had was that i did'nt recieve the stickers that was suppose to come with the product. Hey i can live with that!

Strengths:    Looks SWEET, works SUPERB, Airflow is great for a DJ styled helmet, not to mention its pretty cheap...


Weaknesses:    short strap, barely making it, had to stitch the ends to stop it from loosening by itself...

Bottom Line:   
great styling, works great, and its cheap, just try it on before getting it, make sure straps are long enough...

Submitted by Bobby a Weekend Warrior from Malibu

Date Reviewed: February 3, 2006

Strengths:    Looks sick and you get a free 661 sticker in the box.

Weaknesses:    The straps are way to short. Also, since it is a one size fits all, the helmet is very wide. The inside liner is also that eps foam krap and it weighs a ton. If you want a bmx style helmet go for a pro-tec in your size and it will fit you way better but may cost a little more.

Bottom Line:   
Ditch any ideas that you have of getting this helmet unless you are completely broke and go for something a little more nice.

Submitted by Scott a from North Carolina

Date Reviewed: December 20, 2005

Strengths:    Strong shell, fits good, different look.

Weaknesses:    The whole inside of the helmet came out of the outer shell after I left it in the truck in cold weather. I put it back in and now leave it in the house and haven't had the problem since then.

Bottom Line:   
It's a solid helmet that fits very well. I had no issues with the chin stap being too tight. I did have to adjust it almost all the way out though. Other than the glue letting loose and it coming apart in the cold weather, it's been good.

Submitted by Tag a Downhiller from Edinburgh, UK

Date Reviewed: October 18, 2004

Strengths:    Looks amazing, much better than perfectly round Dirt Lid. Ridges look and feel good! Ventilation is fine and protection is good with a little extra length on the back compared to Dirt Lid

Weaknesses:    Straps a fair bit too short. I don't think I have a large head but they only just fit round my chin with strap buckle extended as far as possible without falling off. Also, glue which holds outer shell onto inner shell just broke for me yesterday, will take it back for replacement

Bottom Line:   
Definately a good helmet. I hang around in groups of street riders often who usually wear Dirt Lids (or full facers for crazy sunts) and they all seem to like the look of the Mullet. Fits ok assuming your head isn't too big (mine almost is) and gives good protection, can't ask for much more
