Because of what I once did for a living I'll drop the name of "Seer" helmets. They are rebuildable inside and the best half helmet I've ever worn.

HCI makes one of the lowest profile DOT compliant helmets I have seen in my travels. It is what I wear.

Doesn't exist. The smallest DOT helmet there is will still be substantially larger than a novelty.

HCI 100 is about the smallest DOT helmet you will find.

I have one. I like it. I have a few helmets, but the 100 is the smallest in physical size...

Some say the Outlaw helmets are worth a look...but sizing may differ a little.
