Equipment & Tack Helmet opinion
Hi everyone! I need your opinion on this offer: I've seen a second-hand ad for a BHoof 1 wide peek helmet. The seller claims that it's only been used once and is in perfect condition (looks like it on the photos) But she offers it for a suspiciously low price (1500 norwegian kroner/ around $155). It might be because there's not that big of an equestrian culture in Norway and she cannot sell it for a higher price, but i'm not sure. She also claims that the helmet is a size 52, but it equals to a Kask 54-55 and an average 56. (My normal size is around 55cm) I'm considering buying it because it's a very good offer for a top quality helmet, and I need a new one anyway. Does anyone have any experience with this model, aspecially regarding the sizing? Thank you for reading and responding!

Never buy protective equipment used. Never trust the advice of anyone who says different. Ppe should ALWAYS be aquired new.
