As the title says, I've got a brand new (limited edition) Bell Custom 500 helmet. This is the thinnest true DOT approved helmet available on the market. It is a reissue of the original Bell helmet made in 1954. Very nice quality, lightweight lid. A nice alternative to a half helmet as this 3/4 bucket offers a bit more protection.

I work at a shop and special ordered this helmet from our Bell distributor. Unfortunately its the wrong size (I've got a huge head, and it fits more on the 'medium' side). Our dealer cost on it was $91 cdn. plus shipping. I'm just trying to make my money back. My asking price of $100 is firm - a fairly large savings over buying from a shop/online. I'll also include the limited edition helmet bag that I had to pull some strings to get. Doc's is selling them for $199.

Its brand new, never worn and has sat in my very clean smoke free home for only a couple of days while I patiently waited for my head to shrink. No dice.

Hey - maybe I want this :) Let me know when I can come see if it fits my medium sized cranium. I'm going to Barber's in 2 days and would like to bring this with me (need a DOT helmet for the parade lap and my Shoei RF1100 is a bit overkill).

Yeah man its perfect for that kind of thing - I use a nice Suomy for in the city/freeway riding but for country roads and more relaxed rides its nice to have a helmet that lets you feel the fresh air. Pretty decent quality too for a cheap bucket.

I replied to your email about where/when to meet.

Sold; pending pick-up. CHECK THAT - ITS BACK UP FOR SALE, Tim could not make it out to see the helmet before Barbers.
 
I have that helmet, and its fit and finish is worth the price. You will be happy with it for sure.
 
For all those who saw my second post, it didn't work out fot Tim so its BACK UP FOR SALE
