Re: [RBW] Re: What happened to the Bell Metro?
I think it's one of those universal truths espoused around the time Brooks was at risk of going out of business (Y2K?). You can apply it to everything from striped wool socks to TA Zephyr cranksets (and Bell Metro helmets!).

The 'Magic Basement' has failed this time. Mojo [can't say I've ever known someone named Mojo in this lifetime]... No new Metro, according to wife: "Given to friend in Minneapolis when we moved away... ", but we do have a Metro in black [looking very lightly used, but I cannot find the sizing anywhere inside it] you're welcome to have. I'll post fotos when I get back from my ride. -Scott On Jun 21, 5:21 pm, Jon Grant wrote: > "S.Cutshall" wrote: > > Lemme check our basement...

If you like 'em that much, you should probably get both of them. Isn't that one of the Rivendell maxims: If you like something, buy a lifetime's supply. Because soon enough they'll stop making them.

[RBW] Re: What happened to the Bell Metro?
Lemme check our basement... I think we might have a Metro w/all the xtras, brand new and unopened. If we didn't give it away before our last move, you can have it for free [pay something forward to someone else at some point, if that's okay and not too pushy of me to request?]. I stopped wearing a helmet last year, so I think we might have a new unopened Metro [and I know for certain we have my used one]. Actually, I'll ask my wife [she's the Keeper of All-Things-Basement]. -Scott On Jun 21, 2:00 pm, Mojo wrote: > I love my large Metro, its mirror, the back strap for a blinky, the > round shape, the snaps for a rain cover.

I thought the Citi was just the successor/updated Metro. Bummer. Looks like you might need to get a non-helmut specific rain cover...
