Looks pretty cool, so now we have HardRock, Bell Custom 500 and the Bitwells to choose from.

So they are finally here.I am digging the flat Titanium.But I may hold off until the flake colors come out did they say what colors or when.I would love to pick up a silver flake and send it to Back Street Buckets for a custom Kandy spray job.Did they say if they use different size shells.

They just list 3 colors available now and say "No flake yet, we'll have some of that down the road." per Biltwell... They don't mention anything about outer shell sizes.

I did a thread on this in the General Chat Section about 2 weeks ago .Biltwell emailed me and said they would not be any more lo profile than any other current 3/4 DOT. Ex Fulmer V2,Bell Custom 500,Hard Rock etc.Just not possible due to the saftey foam requirements.But who knows may be they will look better because the shape of the shell or something.
