Sw this and thought I'd share. Delivered for under £27 + 4 star sharp rating. I have boiught from ghostbikes before with no issues, but have never heard of 'Agrius' before.

It's just some bits of plastic and foam. I'd guess that China.com has cloned someone else's lid to skip the development costs.

It seems crazy. Seller must be paying at least a few quid postage. They must get them for Penny Coin Penny Coin to make any profit.

Can the stick with the Agruis text be removed?

Not sure. I would be a sticker of some sort, I'd try my go to remover - brake and clutch cleaner.. But it might be under a layer or 2 of clear coat.

Forgot to do the usual disclaimer. I don't work for ghostbikes, agrius or ebay Smile

Gawd bless em, I have long been hankering for the Lego UCS B-wing, but the price put it out of reach. Thankfully, china do there own version, it's a brick for brick copy and easily 90% as good as the real thing. £35.50 delivered Laughing

Sod it, i've just ordered one as well.

I have an MDS200 flip up i got from SBS a year or so ago that was meant to be medium which i'd expected to be 57-58, but its actually 58-59 and has never been a snug fit.

I was going to get an AGV K-3 SV but this looks as good and has the same rating.

I wonder if the visors will be optically correct at that price or whether they will cause distortion.

It's sturdier than the official Snowspeeder. Laughing

At £35 I could buy 8 of those for what I paid for my Schuberth, which was on sale when I bought it.
I like the Schuberth, but blimey that is cheap.

Still can't get over the price of the LEGO stuff... Huge prices for a bit of plastic.

that lid looks oddly reasonable for the price, it's now 35 quid though. If i didn't already have 2 lids i'd might be tempted Laughing

Don't know why but I checked Agrius out,

Quote:
Designed and Developed by British Bikers, the AGRIUS motorcycle
clothing range has been tried & tested in the UK to ensure they surpass
the highest levels of safety, quality, durability and comfort. Countless
hours of research, development & testing have been carried out to
produce a brand that you can depend on!


Ghostbikes are their main stockist..

Wouldn't touch their helmets with a 20FT pole, I'm sticking with a good
brand that's been around for decades... AGV....

If you could report back with a wind noise rating, that would be good. Thumbs Up

Helmet arrived 20 mins ago;

I've got the car today so can't test it until tomorrow but first impressions are good, however stickers/logos are laquered over so you won't be removing them!

(Pics below - click for bigger versions)

Arrived in a plain small white box (note, if you bought a helmet from sports bike shop they'd deliver in larger box filled with shredded padding so best inspect this one for any damage to be safe);
https://thumb.ibb.co/cVGGET/IMG_20180731_090309.jpg

Agruis box inside the white one;
https://thumb.ibb.co/hMAyTo/IMG_20180731_090334.jpg

Hemlet bag inside agruis box;
https://thumb.ibb.co/jD3wET/IMG_20180731_090357.jpg

Helmet bag with logo;
https://thumb.ibb.co/bFV9ZT/IMG_20180731_090410.jpg

Quick release strap (not old style d ring);
https://thumb.ibb.co/cYR58o/IMG_20180731_090428.jpg

Front;
https://thumb.ibb.co/eXGiuT/IMG_20180731_090446.jpg

Side;
https://thumb.ibb.co/kze3uT/IMG_20180731_090457.jpg

Quick release strap/underside again (note funky carbon fibre-esque rubber trim at the top left of padding). Also, i've not got it pictured here but it does have the little hood thing that sits under your chin to deflect wind/rain off your neck);
https://thumb.ibb.co/cAaXoo/IMG_20180731_090508.jpg

Sunvisor (This is operated by a lever beside the hinge which you can just make out which seems better than my MDS where the lever is on the base of the helmet/more awkward);
https://thumb.ibb.co/f8qyTo/IMG_20180731_090645.jpg

Closable vents and nose deflector thing (there are 2 more closable vents on the top with 2 exhaust holes at the rear);
https://thumb.ibb.co/n5GGET/IMG_20180731_090727.jpg

Manual page;
https://thumb.ibb.co/mEMiuT/IMG_20180731_091020.jpg

Other Manual page;
https://thumb.ibb.co/jgZ3uT/IMG_20180731_091024.jpg

Some reflective hi viz stickers;
https://thumb.ibb.co/mX5Xoo/IMG_20180731_091031.jpg

Invoice from ghost bikes;
https://thumb.ibb.co/ejpmET/IMG_20180731_091212.jpg

As mentioned i currently have a MDS200 flip up and this agruis is markedly smaller and also lighter...perhaps 3-400grams going by the specs.

Its an excellent fit though so can't wait to use it tomorrow

Thanks for sharing the pics. Looks like a bargain.

Would be glad to hear what the wind noise is like. I'd guess it would be better than any flip up..
