There's never a copper around when you need one

OR.....the photographer just did his/her job and picked a nice photo. On the plus side....at least The Gap ...

Re: New helmet time

... and Asian markets as well as the 4 different shell sizes within those markets. That's why when some people buy a lid cheaply online in the same size they had previously used from a specific manufacturer it doesn't fit as well sometimes.

Re: New helmet time
