the D2 Peat edition is the sweetest helmet scheme I have ever seen
I want to touch it

Yea, i like the peat one too.

I love the Phobia!

I don’t know what the right photo term for it is but the Peaty is backwards. Look at the writing.

accidentally rotated it, fixed now.

are those models the onlys ones or are they making more for 2008 biking?

Ugh, utter crap. Same old designs. Flames, pistons and eyeballs. Wait, why would you put pictures of pistons on a bike helmet? Why would I want to wear a helmet that has Steve Peat stuff on it? And the phobia design came from a moto helmet 2 year ago. For such an overpriced helmet you would think they would come up with new and better graphics.

Who wouldn’t want to have some sweet Steve Peat schwag? He’s a legend and amazingly fast
What *should* he put on the production helmets for graphics?

Not doing much for me. Flames are getting old hat. Im tired of the flames on my 05 carbon and am gonna get it painted. two years on and its still the same….. I’d like to see a return to classic pin striping or large sections of color like the THE helmets. The right side of the peaty is cool. I’d prefer to have the same design on both sides.

Does the peaty helmet have anything that says “peaty”? What on it is supposed to resemble steve peat? (sorry I’m new to dh)

These graphics are sick! I am sorry but comparing Troy Lee stuff to THE doesn’t even compare. THE graphics blow. I personally love the graffiti style one. There is not one company out there that can touch Troy Lee graphics.

Yeah, how long are they gonna use the hot wheels flames been going since 04 or more.
Just different color flames.
The top ones look well, OK I guess - just as Saint says, the eyeballs, pistons and crap are old logo of Troys revamped. I think the helmets are awesome, I have owned two and now have a carbon one. But, yeah if this guy is so creative come up with something new.
I’ve seen way more interesting and original designs on the homemade paint scemes on the internet. Maybe they suck so in a year when your tired of em you can send em in for a 1000 dolly custom paint job, or buy another recycled idea in 09

Saving for the Peaty edition as we speak…

When are they available?
August 4th, 2007 at 2:44 am
I’m hoping the have a quick release like Giro.

‘why would you put pictures of pistons on a bike helmet? ‘
- Maybe they think we are all motocross wannabe’s?
I agree with Saint - there is no excuse for creative laziness, these helmets cost a lot.

The pistons look cool, You lot are dum!
August 6th, 2007 at 8:04 am
I think they should bring back the razor graphics. They where sick ! same old flames as the past few years is getting boring.
August 12th, 2007 at 5:00 am
yeah im disappointed. The only helmet with the white outline that i’ve always loved with the tld’s is peatys.
“Does the peaty helmet have anything that says “peatyâ€? What on it is supposed to resemble steve peat? (sorry I’m new to dh)”
Son, all you need to look at is the dude with the beer on the side and bingo, you should know its steve peat.
Plus i agree they should bring back the blue razor (Sickest TLD Ever) in a carbon version.
Can you say dialed?

is it worth a upgrade from my daredevel
August 18th, 2007 at 1:28 pm
the peaty one is cool, but why the hell would you buy an expensive a** helmet that has steve peats name on it?
August 18th, 2007 at 1:29 pm
ummm flames in 08? when will it end???
August 19th, 2007 at 4:58 pm
I thought that the D2’s were sickly insane.
August 19th, 2007 at 5:05 pm
I read Supasmacks reply nobody and I mean nobody can touch troy lee’s graphics.
