Product Description

Weekend rider? Hey, we believe you deserve sleek contours and high-performance features too. Don't settle for one of those ill-fitting, tiny-vented, lowest-common-denominator helmets.

Strengths:    -Light
-Decent Styling
-Price $$$$
-Quick fit adjustment dial is nice


Weaknesses:    your sunday morning buddies might poke fun at you if you don't spend $150 on a helmet.

Bottom Line:   
Price in CDN dollars.

Great helmet. Tried on all the high end Giro and Bell helmets in the store. This one fit the best and was a fraction of the price. I fully expected to drop 100+ on a helmet. After spending 45 minutes trying everything on I went with this one. The only downside I came up with is the colors leave a little to be desired. Its one piece injected with adjustable fit and looks decent. Do you need to spend 2-3 times as much to look cooler? I don't. I would bet my bike that it will protect my noggin as well or better than more expensive models should the need arrive.
Great buy.

Great helmet for the money. It's very light and fits nicely. When I'm riding, I forget it's on. Looks good too.

I am riding a bus(es) from Sea-Tac Airport to Everett, WA. I don't typically ride public transportation. This is kind of fun. /Seattle is pretty and the sky is blue.   Read More »
