    Never used them but have some racers wearing them in the World Superbike series. Seem to be nice for the money.

      FX-100 have a new flip down sun shield and I like the washable insides.

        I have had 2 and my son wears one still. Great lids for the money. They breath well and are comfy to wear. Hands down better then the ICON I own or any other ICON I have ever had on my head.

          I got one, and for the price its not bad. The seal between the lens and the helmet isn't the best on mine and it whistles pretty bad sometimes

            I have an FX-90 and love it, just wish I had waited like a month to get a new helmet when the FX-100 went on sale for $70...would love to have that sun shield..might just get one anyway and sell the old one or keep as a spare.

              I have an FX-96, and it fits well, comfortable and well ventilated when you crack open the visor a bit.

              Only thing I wish was better was the peripheral vision. Maybe my head is too fat though...

                      haha, yeah that site is like a candy store, it's hard to leave with just one piece. I am still having an internal debate over getting an FX-100 I would love to have the sun shield.

                        I just ordered the FX-100 skull helmet in blue to match my Kat. That and a pair of glove liners got me free shipping. Now... if my wife doesn't kill me before I get a chance to use it, all will be good.

                          Just got the Fx-100 delivered along with the SS jacket. Both at a great price even the wife took it well, she's a suck for "but baby it was on sale and don't you want me protected". Helmet is awesome, fit, padding, and chin strap. The sun visor could have been a touch bigger but it will do. Jacket is unreal. Still waiting on the gloves but I'm sure they will be good.

                            Those that have used them..... what head shape would you say they are made for? I've felt a big difference between helmets in this. The Shoei that my wife threw away, honestly, didn't fit me that well. It seems like it was shaped for more of a bowling ball head than a rugby ball head. I wish there was a database for helmet head shape.
