Thought it was joke at first but looks OK I guess though not sure I'd want the one with the clear cover.Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.0

Yeah, it's interesting. Claims to he lighter and stronger. Will we all be riding them in a few years?0

If they price them right they'll sell. i.e. price them at cost to make + a sensible markup. If they price them based on organic hippy pseudo-science, they'll bomb. The signs aren't good - "dual layer wood-cellulose fibre honeycomb board" indeed.
As for the longevity, wasn't the trabby made out of similar stuff?0 -
wont they go all soggy and mouldy if you get sweaty or caught in the rain?0

The helmet can stand up to the elements, as it has been treated to be sweat- and rain-proof.
Not utterly convinced with that, but there you go, they have thought about it a bit.0
