Thanks. Their prices are on the higher side, 3800/-, while most ppl in Delhi, Mumbai quote 3000 bucks.. Hence was looking for alternatives.

Wonder if these offerings are true - Pay Rs 1599 for stylish imported LS2 Helmet at NOBLE INDIA (P)Ltd. , they are offering for Rs.1599, but again in Jaipur and an unsure model.

Heh heh! Good find! I saw this as well. Snapdeals are usually authentic.

Since you haven't mentioned a budget, but would suggest you to look upwards of 8K, thats where SparX and others start. However, on Planet DSG, you can look for helmets priced at 5-7K and they are decent enough for the pricing.

Performance Racing also retails top brands such as Arai, HJC, Joe Roocket, KBC and SparX

Congrats! Price? Where did you get it in Hyd?

Is Cross better than a similarly priced LS2?

Got it from Adventure On The Rocks@ Madhapur for Rs.3500/- which could be on the higher side, but I liked the graphics and the fit, moreover I did not see it anywhere else, so picked it.

Not sure about Cross, I saw this one, I wanted this one and I picked this one.

Hi Windsplitter, Did you get this near Urvashi Theatre, My bro had paid 3k for LS2 dragon white n Red

After using my LS2 Phobia for 3 months, the only negative I feel is that it's suffocating when you are wearing it and your bike isn't in motion (while starting, waiting at a signal and stuff) and you feel the need to open the visor. Also, I still haven't mastered the art of changing the visors quickly, it takes me a couple of minutes at least
