I was looking online and discovered a good looking helmet called a Canyon Cougar.
It's obviously at the budget end priced at circa £20 but wondered if anyone has one and if so is it any good ? Ventilation and comfort being the main issues.

    The Canyons are cheap n nasty. Poorly made and poorly vented. The Bell's a much better option and Giro do the Indicator for £30 which is probably the best budget helmet out there. Good finish, good venting, plenty of colour choice and looks good too.
