$120.00 | | Purchased At: | lbs | | Strengths: | Fit, ventilation, and durability | | Weaknesses: | buckle-the older style helmets had a double D ring that you have to loop the strap through. | | Bike Setup: | Quasimoto w/ 888 | | Bottom Line: | A great full face helmet. It's well ventilated and has a thick shell that will take a lot of knocks without cracking. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$130.00 | | Purchased At: | Go-Ride | | Strengths: | Comfortable, good looks, breathes well for a dh helmet. I have the carbon one and it is very light. I like the 'seatbelt' chin strap buckle, it's easy to use with gloves on. This helmet fits very well, no movment, but it doesn't squash your head either. | | Weaknesses: | I don't have any complaints | | Similar Products Used: | Bell Bellistic, Giro Switchblade | | Bike Setup: | Bighit DH w/ Shiver, etc., Foes Fly w/ super t, etc. | | Bottom Line: | I think this is the best deal you can find on a quality dh helmet. It is so much nicer than the Bell I used to wear. I was looking at the Troy Lee, but realized I could buy this helmet and a dh jacket for the same price. If price is no consideration, buy the Troy Lee, for the rest of us the Vigor is the best choice. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$52.00 | | Purchased At: | ProDealed from Vigor | | Strengths: | The price is right! Fits like a glove, even thought it is a helmet, looks cool w/ the low profile back and bottom, light weight, relatively good visibility. | | Weaknesses: | People look at it like a Diamondback, no respect. The thing is the product is great. | | Similar Products Used: | Bellistic, 661, Azonic | | Bike Setup: | Da Bomb Sputnik dual slalom frame, Race Face Prodigy DH crankset, Bombshell Wicked Wendy fork, Magura Hydro brakes... I love dual slalom/urban bikes | | Bottom Line: | This helmet rules. The price is awesome and looks good. It fits like a dream. I think it looks pretty rad too. If you are a shop owner or product manager, get in on Vigor helmets since their prices are amazing and their product is unbelievable! | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

This is a great Downhill helmet. It is NORBA approved. It sells at a good price. It is also a full face helmet. This has a lot of nice features and has a lot of cooling vents. I recommend this helmet for every Dowhill rider or racer.This helmet rules! | | Overall Rating: |
