Every province in Canada sets their own standards for what helmets are legal - but Alberta's are pretty close to Quebec's for helmets. We just don't need winter tires for spring and fall....  ;) ;D

I'm wondering if my CADPAT cover would fit over a Bell Drifter, though......  It looks pretty similar, but smaller.....

Awesome helmet.

Yeah that's also what I think, their stuff isn't always the top quality but they really always have great designs.

Alex, that lid looks great!!  $500 bucks is very rich, did you buy from them or elsewhere?  I'm in the market myself.  Is it quiet?

Definitely an expensive helmet, but its carbon fiber after all :P If I keep it 5 years its not too expensive down the line. I bought from a store here in St-Hyacinthe (Quebec, Canada) called ADM Sport and got it for $440 + taxes (CAD). Its a loud helmet if you compare it with brands like Shoei that are known to be quiet, but it is very well vented and I never get any fog. The lid is awesome and works great day and night. I Still put on sunglasses on sunny days though.

You can go to a store and ask if they can order it. That's what I did as they didn't had it in stock. Its a new helmet and with winter coming soon they would've waited for next year before ordering new models. For the size you can try another Icon Airframe helmet in store :D
