Anyone use the Sixsixone evolution full face?
Main Post:
Hey all. Looking to upgrade my shitty no name full face and there is a carbon 661 evo full face on marketplace near me for $100. I think it's the 2012 model but it looks in fantastic shape and doesn't seem to have taken any falls. Should I hold out for something more modern or is that a pretty decent helmet? Thanks for any help
Edit:
Thanks for the input everyone. Managed to find a nice POC that is 1 year old for the same price.

Don't quote me or anything but, I'm pretty sure the foam in helmets sorta expire after 4 to 5 years.
Sixsixone pedals? Can anyone tell me if they are legitimate and has anyone used them? I can't find them anywhere on 661's website

Not on the website..The 661 logo isn't even on them and they're coming from Hong Kong. I'd bet they're fake.

Anyone here use 661 full face contour reset helmet?
Main Post:
Hi, looking to get my first full face for an upcoming MTB trip this spring. I’ve heard a lot about 661 and stumbled on to their Reset Contour full face. Wondering if anyone has used these or know if they’re quality or not, obviously biggest concerns being safety and durability. Thanks!

Be better if it had a detachable chin piece...
Of course if you are not in a climate that gets hot, like AZ, that is not really too much of a concern...
Price sure as hell is right, isn't it?
Doesn't appear to be "mips" though...
which probably explains the low cost...
Of course i suppose one CAN survive without "mips"...
Doesn't it suck trying to find the right helmet?...

How's the peripheral vision when wearing it? Can you wear glasses with it? Comfortable in hot weather? How's the fit?

Genuinely Curious. Why is 661 so much?
Main Post:
Why is pattern 661 so much more when there are AK CH out there with equal if not more blue in different patterns? I just dont understand why 661 is worth as much as it is, is it because of the scar on it or where the blue specifically is? Just want some explanation because i dont get it at all. Thanks for the help
661 321 (arguably more blue overall) 555 (also arguably more blue then 661)Top Comment:
It’s because you’re looking at it from a profile view. Look at it from the first person view model and the 661 has the blue booty which is most visible.
Six six one customer service phone number?
Main Post:
I ordered a helmet directly from their website a week and a half ago and as soon as I gave them my money they stopped replying to my e-mails. Was supposed to be shipped within 5-7 days, and I haven’t seen any indication that my helmet has been shipped. They were supposed to send shipping tracking info. I can’t find a phone number on their website. Does anyone have experience with them, and maybe a phone number to call directly?
Thanks.

The front page of the website says "direct to customer shipping will resume in early 2021". You probably missed the cut off and now they're on holiday.
Looking for cheap-ish fullface helmet
Main Post:
Hey there!
I have only had a normal enduro helmet for ages now and many bikeparks near me require a fullface helmet. I have to replace my half lid anyways since the padding is done and I can't get any replacements, so I thought of just getting a fullface and a half lid somewhere down the road since fullfaces aren't always practical.
It has to be relatively big since I have a huge head and preferrably under 120€.
Thanks!

SixSixOne is having a sale currently and I saw a full face on there. Not sure of any specs on it though.
