Are there any offroad helmets for bikes?

I'm looking for an offroad/motocross-style bike helmet that I plan to use for BMX. Are there any companies that make cheap motorcycle helmets (under $50?) or replicas for bicycles that look like an offroad helmet? Thanks!

Answer
I think you're wanting to get a full-face style helmet, right? If that's what you mean by offroad and moto. I don't think I've ever seen any for $50 or under, not even on super closeout sales. There are some good ones that won't break the bank, though.

Pryme makes a decent one that usually sells for $65-$80 and I think Pro-Tec has one in that range, too. Bell, Azonic, and Giro all have some cheaper models if you shop around. Full-face helmets can get expensive quickly, but most of them are $140 or less, several of them in the $90-$120 range.

Look at http://www.pricepoint.com , http://www.nashbar.com , http://www.jensonusa.com , and http://www.blueskycycling.com for good helmet deals. Nashbar and Performance usually have good closeouts and often offer coupons for an even greater deal on a helmet.

Also, check out the Pro-Tec Ace Dig....not a full-face, but it's kinda retro. Sort of a skate lid with a visor and some nice shaping. You might like it, and it's different. :o)

who makes a good bicycle helmet?

My head is kinda large so the helmet cannot be too small. Plus, I would like it to have a functional sun visor.
