Used to have a Bell Volt which got destroyed when some tw@t hit me from behind last year. Great helmet but I can't find a good deal on one in my size (Large) in the colour I want (white).

So I am looking for recommendations for other helmets which are light, well ventilated and look good. What do you use?

Or if you know somewhere I can buy a large white Bell Volt for a great price then please let me know :D

    Might not be helpful as its over budget, ( my budget was £100 to start with!)

    But the specialized prevail is a great helmet. Super light, very comfortable, loads of adjustability and well ventilated. Looks the dogs bollocks, well on me anyway :lol:

    Yeah looks really nice, but way too much for me as I will be looking to rebuild my bike as well (need new frame amongst other bits) unless I can get some big discounts on one.
