They are currently selling three colours&#8230;&#8230;flat titanium, which is like a medium silver and flat black (both shown below). They also have a flat copper colour, which looks like burnt orange. I haven&#8217;t worn this helmet on a ride yet, but it feels pretty much like my Fulmer V2, although they&#8217;re sized differently. <\/p>\n<p>My Fulmer is a LARGE, while the Biltwell is a MEDIUM.<\/p>\n<p> I paid $99, so it&#8217;s comparable in price to the Fulmer as well. I bought mine from Low Brow Customs, but you can purchase directly from Biltwell Inc. and probably any other bike shop selling that brand. Lowbrow Customs has a fairly informative FAQ about the Hustler including weight &amp; size comparisons with the Biltwell Novelty, Bell 500 and Fulmer V2 helmets, which helped in deciding what size I needed.
