Why the Gringo is a Modern Classic
When Biltwell introduced the Gringo, it filled a void in the market for riders seeking authentic vintage styling with modern safety certifications. Its clean lines, quality construction, and accessible price point made retro helmets mainstream. Today, the Gringo remains the benchmark for open-face helmets—the original that inspired countless imitators but has never been matched for its combination of style, safety, and value.
The helmet that started it all. The Biltwell Gringo delivers timeless open-face styling with DOT-approved safety and the quality construction that made it a modern icon.
