I really like the first one you talked about. Just wish they weren’t so expensive.
Poc Ventral
Kask Rapido cost less than $100 and weighs less than 200 grams.
Love my Protone Icon been excellent.. had lots of Kasks awesome 🤩🚴🏅👍crashed in them to and very glad I had them on
No real independent aero testing. I dunno why it’s so hard to find aero testing data about these aero helmet… wheels? ✅ tires? ✅ bars? ✅ frames? ✅ 🧦 ? ✅ but helmets? Very hard to find
Met Trenta (Manta is their most aero helmet, but Trenta is supposedly almost as good and has excellent ventilation) and Kask Utopia (their aero lid) for me.
Believe it or not, the most aero helmet is still the one worn by Greg Lemond to beat Laurent Fignon in the tour De France! The ‘old’ ‘crap’ is still the company’s best selling helmet.
Met Manta MIPS – why go for the Trenta instead if you’re comparing aero lids?
Helmets are all about the same. I just want the best looking lid (purely subjective) and it has to dock my sunglasses in the front of the helmet). My vote is the Lazer G1
So the tester rode the kask… as usual, this video is so gay 👥
I just got the Evade 3. I definitely made the right choice. More ventilated than Evade 2.
As for the team sponsorships, they only sponsor 3 mens pro teams (QS, Bora and Total Energies) and one womens pro team (SD Worx).
Sweet Protection Falcorner II?
I have the Smith Ignite and I really like it. It is very comfortable. I think it does have a little extra weight, but I don’t notice it. I feel the air flowing through it very well. I even wore it in a grandfondo with lots of climbing (about 2,700 meters)and it didn’t bother me. I tried Kask and absolutely hate that helmet. It just doesn’t work for me.
Kask are the best helmets.
Met dont even make the 3K Trenta anymore. No one sells it. You can’t find it in a medium. It’s never in stock. Get an Abus.
I have a Kask Bambino. Your selection does not include TT helmets, which are much more aero. These are used exclusively in mass start track racing. By the way, I assume that you’ve never heard of Cadomotus, a Dutch brand that makes speed skating equipment. They have an aero skating helmet that can also be used for cycling.
Why HJC is not included as they got their own wind tunnel for the test??
I have a Trenta, its quite aero according to some testing, but mainly its well ventilated, i’m picki on that. But all of this MET’s aero helmet is the Manta!
Any verification of OEM claims going on in this list? Tks.
As an average rider, I want to see a review for the safest helmet instead 😂
