Somebody somewhere is wiping the tears from their eyes at the expense of the people that have been snared by the marketing.....

 

It used to be that helmets prices were proportional to the number of vents. The more it cost, the more vents you got. Somewhere that got flipped on its head.... (pun intended) Wait until Game and Makro hear about this...... prices are going to go through the roof!

Easy money saver to have a new style aero helmet*:

 

You'll need:

 

normal full-o-vents helmet

 

One roll checkers brand cling film

 

Then:

 

Wrap helmet in cling film, same process as wrapping your sandwich spread sarmies in the morning. Wrap four layers.

 

Turn helmet upside down and cut out excess cling film blocking the hole for your head.

 

Wear as necessary.

 

* you will look like a douche. Even worse in winter when you sweat and it mists up Iminside vent hole widows.

you can just punch little needle holes in for airvents - you will look like a duche any way with the fruitfly style pisspot helmet

so whats the new bell supers' price?

thehub was making posts a few weeks ago about some bike show that was happening, they showed the new trance 2s, played with that upside down rockshox and posted a bunch of random pictures

 

one of the random pics had that new bell supers in it, and the price was up at 3.2k if im not mistaken

 

im not sure how accurate that is but its far above what i was hoping it would be!

Way too much P.T. Get 1X shower cap (preferably with floral motif) Stretch to fit over said helmet, and hey presto! Aero 101 on the cheap.
