heed0 Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) Hi all I'm looking at buying a road bike helmet. What are good options that I should consider? These are 3 that I'm looking at:Giro AtmosRudy Project SterlingBell Volt My budget is around R1800 Lastly - Is the extra R500 worth it for the Giro Ionos helmet? Let me hear your thoughts...

AndreZA Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Everything from about R600 will protect the same. There is no "best". Go and fit them first before you decide on a brand.
X-Man Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Bell Volt and Giro Ionos are both the top of range helmets. And you might be in luck.. R1299 at www.buycycle.co.za. HURRY!!!
heed0 Posted November 3, 2011 Author Posted November 3, 2011 Everything from about R600 will protect the same. There is no "best". Go and fit them first before you decide on a brand. Best as in weight, ventilation...
Iron Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 in this price bracket its the one thats fits you best !!
MariusL Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Bell Volt on Buycycle.co.za for R1,299 (hope the promo is still on for you). Usually retails at R2,399 and a flippin cool helmet!!!

Tiny K Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Mine! :clap: :clap: Most helmets are the same except for the real cheapies - just that the more money, the lighter (maybe) and more vents.

heed0 Posted November 3, 2011 Author Posted November 3, 2011 Anybody buy from buycycle? How long do you wait?
Benjamin Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 I've got a Giro Atmos and it's cracker. Light, comfy and cool. Just get the right size. I've got large and fits well.
andretraut Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Buy yourself the latest Ride magazine where a few helmets are reviewed. My choice of a helmet is the Specialized Prevail S-Works. Just remember the old saying, if you have a R250 head, buy a R250 helmet!
