beefchief Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I don't really have the cash to grab a NME One. But I miss the sight lines of my old profile mask. I was wondering if anyone know if the new cage is backwards compatible with my fit 3 VTX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) Not that this helps a ton but I think profiles and NMEs have different cages. I could be wrong though Edited August 18, 2022 by A.YOUNGoalie13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong though Profile and NME cages aren't compatible with each other. They're also different helmets through fit, feel, sightlines, face opening, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johncho Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 This is true, but I believe now with the NME One, it uses the profile cage dimensions as to consolidate the cages into one line. Please verify before you buy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWI Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Was there ever any verification one way or the other if now the NME cages and the Profile cages are the same? I know the mount positions on the shells are different but that's not a big deal. In the Bauer catalog the certified cages are the same SKU number in the mask specifications, so I'm thinking they may be the same dimensions now.

ZeroGravitas Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 They are now the same. You can verify this by looking at the cage model which is printed on the cage itself. White mask is 960, black mask is NMEOne. Both use the Bauer "GRW SS" cage (certified stainless cage). Same thing holds true for the masks with the cat-eye. Both would use the Bauer "GRW NC SS" cage (non-certified stainless cage). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
