Weekend loft finds!

[boy"O"boy]

The GF had me go in the loft this weekend to clear some space and sort out the camping gear. Whilst up there.... I had chance to sort a couple of boxes and came up with these retro gems.
.... not much I know, but enough to cheer you up when you have to do one of those jobs instead of getting out on the bike

Specialized Airforce helmet cover '89ish?
Spelicialized Piranha helmet and protective bag ( 10 year warranty expired 2006! )

Air Piranha

Don't know if JMC wore one. I remember buying it for it's cool factor with my student loan from Kingston cycles. There's a little rubber fin on the back and the inside of the 'mouth' has painted white teeth!! .... that was on it 'box fresh' ...rather than gett'in busy with the Tippex.

I've been serching for the spotted 'orange' cover that was also with the 'airforce' cover..... but it's no longer there

God, I remember them!



I had a Specialized lid before my current Bell 'The Pump'. I cant remember the model of my Spesh, it was white, Sub 6???? Anyway, I smashed it in my BIG BMX course crash. It saved my life IMO!
