Hi all.
I have a giros atmos helmet and am not impressed with it !!
Does anyone know where I can get the spare inserts for the helmet from?
Can anyone also suggest a good halmet which has replaceable straps. My Atmos straps are physically fixed in the helmet and cannot be removed from what I can see.

    If you look under "Helmet Spares" on the Chain Reaction site or “Helmets - Performance and then Giro Performance Helmet Pads on the Wiggle site you should find what you need.

    Removable straps? I've never seen a helmet with that feature. There would be too much scope for compromising the integrity of what the helmet was designed for. But.. I’d be happy to be proved wrong 8)

    Cheers I will take a look now.
    I think it would be very easy to design a helmet with removable inserts, the manufacturers probably dont bother as they know when they get frayed and smelly us silly bikers will buy another one !!
    Why is it fixed one end? It would be very easy to have one end looped round one of the vents to fix it.
    I might make my own and patent it :D
