Guy With a Handmade Dirt Bike Gets a New Lid | Z1R Helmet Upgrade

Share

Presented by Z1R Helmet

The guys at Z1R have given us an amazing opportunity to help make our sport a lot safer, and last week we ran across a guy at the end of our mountain bike ride who literally pieced together his dirt bike out of three or four other machines. The fabrications to make it all work were backyard at best, but we admired his ingenuity and determination. He said something about trading his helmet for some parts, and we saw a great chance to gift him a new Z1R F.I. Mips helmet. A few days later, we saw him ripping down the trail in his new lid, looking happy as a clam.

    Great job by Brian (and Swap for the helmet upgrade), but soap and water does not cost much. Wash that thing Brian!
