decent looking helmet, £40 budget?

El Selb

I've just moved in to london and am about to start commuting to work.

My current helmet is a big lumpy looking thing and i'm just wondering what's the coolest looking thing i can buy with a small budget of about £40?!

I bought my current bike when i just started cycling properly about 6 months ago and didn't realise how bad mine looked!!

I've seen this giro but i wonder whether it's going to be pretty big in the flesh....

Size is fine, sub £40 too

I really like Specialized helmets. Definitly think they make some of the better looking helmets. I have this one: http://www.rutlandcycling.com/26848/Spe ... n=pid26848

Has a lot of vents and is pretty light for the money. I also put it to use last year and judging by the damage it took a lot of the impact! Would recommend.

I'm not sure I'd buy a helmet online unless you've tried one on already as fit is obviously very important!

I picked up the Bell Alchera, great looking lid, light and comfy.

£32 here..... http://www.fatbirds.co.uk/detail.asp/sk ... era_Helmet

£40 in Halfords, with a clip on.off visor.

This looks good for the money

I had the transfer and yes its a bit of a beef eater!

I have a Transfer as well, it's a chunky mother. But cheap, and it has a handy mesh covering the front to stop bugs getting in.

Specialized are a good bet. The Echelon is nice.
