Just received an Outlaw Carbon Fiber ˝ helmet. Has DOT and FMVSS-218 certification labels. This helmet is smaller than my AFX FX-70 ˝ helmet, and just a tick larger than my “illegal” (whatever that is??) beanie ˝ helmet. No mushroom head. Haven’t weighed it, but it’s lighter than the AFX. Stays put on my noggin at 70MPH+. No noticeable movement at all. I was surprised by the lack of whistling noise, usually caused by the straps on ˝ helmets. This one is quite.

Couldn’t find it anywhere except on eBay. Paid a little more than the “out of stock” price at Leatherup.com, but I got one. Be advised about the sizing. I wear a Medium in the AFX or Vega brand. The XL in the Outlaw fits me perfect. The seller on eBay has a sizing chart. Use it.
