After a new helmet, looking to spend £100 - £130, any recommendations!?

    brilliant lid and price too, as a non wearer this has (semi) won me over!

    Kask lids are excellent. I love my K50.

    I'd get one that fits you and you like the look of. Nearly everyone buys helmets on that basis.

    I just got a Kask Mojito. First helmet I've found that feels like it fits my head properly, very nice.

    had two Lazer helmets recently - just paid £80 for a fluro helium from Wiggle and its great - I really don't think you have to pay £100 plus...

    I just bought a new Met Inferno UL helmet 2 weeks ago from Chain Reaction for £50 rather than £100. It's very nice, and compares well with my old Giro Ionos... BUT, if I was buying a helmet this week I think I'd look at one of the Lois Garneau ones from Evans, and use the 3 for the price of 2 offer that's on to get some other kit as well. Saw a really nice LG helmet on a rider at a race last week...


    I had one of them red bikes but I don't any more. Sad face.
