I don't know if buying a used helmet is the best way to good health.
It is a k2 bike. intersting design to say the least.

i ride the same frame as you. (it is the evo, right?)
as for the switchblade, everyone i've talked to said its pretty well useless. just get an xc helmet and a fullface. jensonusa.com has the bellistic fullface on sale for around 40bucks, and you can pick up a cheap xc helmet.

yea i had a choice of the bumpy monkey and the dicso. i took the disco it had hydo brakes over mech and the componants were better. the bumpy came with black forks and the disco hes psylo xc witch i may swap out for 2003 sl's. i like the remote lockout other than that the only changes ive made allready is the front and rear spring it was sat up for a lil guy . i dont realy like the saddle it cause things to fall a sleep on long rides . hey are the full face helmets heavy. they just look bulky to . thanks rob :monkey:
