Hi, mountain biker so never been in here before :lol:

Looking at the Met Stradivarius HES for a hot weather and xc race mountain bike helmet. Just wondering if anyone has one and can give any opinions on them? Especially if any of you use them off road?

Thanks in advance 8)

    Had one of these last year, initially thought it was a great helmet, but after riding the length of Italy in it the internal pads fell apart.
    They are a gel type with velcro fastenings, these were affected by the sweat and fell off. Tried using VHB tape and super-glue to refit them but couldn't.
    Bought Kask Vertigo for this year, so far so good.

    Thanks, seen this in a few reviews, so might be an issue. The kask helmets don't fit me / feel secure unfortunately.
