The Biltwell Gringo
By Ian Heartfield - 21 Jun 13
When these helmets arrive in the U.K, they're going to disappear from the shelves quicker than Michael Dunlop down Bray Hill. We all love our open face lids here in the Shed, but there's always just a teeny weeny bit of worry about leaving our chin somewhere on the North Circular. And of course, open faces really hark from an era just before the one most of our bikes come from. So enter the Gringo, proper old skool 70's look with a nice bit of chin saving plastic too.
At first we weren't sure about the 'goggles with full face' look, but the more we looked at it, the more we liked it. Rumour has it that The Cafe Racer are going be getting them in any day now, so fingers on the clutch lever and get ready to grab one.
Now who has the balls to go for the orange?
