I was going to go with a more subjective answer of, "It's better for some, but not for others." But the honest answer is yes...the FP is simply better unless you're 4'8" and 89 lbs.

Hallo again!

I finally bought my helmet! Not to FP but to CP (if anyone of you is interested, tell me). A friend of mine, due to his job, travels to Argentina. His helmet fitted me, so he tried it on before buying. The helmet is fantastic, doesn´t weight too much, a good finish and big enough for my head, hehehe!!!

I show you the photo. Please, give me your oppinions!!!

Bye!!! :tr:

I believe CP and FP are the same people (or get their helmets made at a central location) as they're both from Argentina, their prices are almost always the same, and I think their pictures are identical as well.

FP and CP ar two different suppliers simply competing in the same market.

I've bought from both of them and their product quality really is excellent.

Ramiro (FP) is a great communicator as is Claudio (CP) and worked with me on my order to get me everything I needed. I even worked out a deal with Ramiro to get a force pike of C&C aluminum since sourcing them seems to be difficult at best sometimes.

I agree. As I can see, you know them. I´ve been also talking to Gabriel (EP), a very goog seller too. Knowing that everyone of them are good sellers, the best thing is to talk to them and find the better price. I didn´t bought the helmet to EP because his is a Don Post, as I told you before. They three are formal and likeable!

Maybe I prefer Claudio bacause my friend know him in the flesh...

Thanks!
