brianbmw Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I want to try one of these helmets, and would like to know if theres a place to get them in the US? If not are there any reputable overseas companies that are easy to deal with. Thanks, Brian Link to comment
Tony_K Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Sorry but the Caberg days are OVER. No longer available in the US as new product. Only old stock that is still here sitting on shelves. The Trip got so-so reviews by the way. Link to comment
brianbmw Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 web bike world loved it. I just bought a new evoline, and i think it's just to heavy. It's a cool helmet and i thought the weight would be ok, but it's not. Link to comment
John Bentall Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 The Trip got so-so reviews by the way. OTOH it got a 5-star rating in the new SHARP UK safety ratings. Link to comment

Thanks, Brian Brian: Try http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk A buddy of mine loved his Caberg; he toured for two years in South America with it, then on his return to Canada had it stolen. He mail-ordered the new Caberg Justissimo GT from the above shop, and he had it in two business days, $350 Cdn (about $290 USD) DELIVERED TO THE DOOR in Edmonton, Alberta. My friend's a stickler for good customer service and he said this shop was outstanding. He telephoned them to place his order. FWIW. Cheers. Tim Link to comment
OldBoldPilot Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 In the unlikely event you're looking for a Caberg Trip size medium in matte black, I just happen to have a brand new one sitting in the original box on a shelf in the garage. Upon trying it on I realized I needed a size large, so this one has never been worn (except for the try-on), and is for sale to any interested party. Link to comment
brianbmw Posted April 30, 2009 Author Share Posted April 30, 2009 I would buy it if i new it would fit. I think i am probably a size small though. How does the size run? If i measure my head for helmet size it's 55-1/2 cm. Right now i'm wearing a size med. scorpion helmet. Where did you buy it? Brian Ashland, Massachusetts Link to comment
Tony_K Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 It wont fit your head. I wear a Caberg and they run true to size for round heads. A medium will be too loose on you. Link to comment
