101SCC Posted July 30, 2009 Share Was wondering what lids the Giro guys had on the mountain stages, follow the link to se this piece of lightweight art. Lightest Helmet ever made! http://www.velonews.com/photo/95224 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie Posted July 30, 2009 Share I'm not crazy about its looks - Ionos looks nicer imo., with bigger vents. LA wore a the new Giro helmet (done in yellow for him) only once, then reverted back to Ionos. Perhaps he did not like it? Conto rode most of the race with the new one...

Absalon Posted July 30, 2009 Share Agreed, Ionos looks much better. The pro light looks really cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racer X Posted July 30, 2009 Share I reckon it looks fairly wicked. I'll take one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket-Boy Posted July 30, 2009 Share I wonder how well it will protect your noggin in a fall? I wouldnt sacrifice funtion for weight in the helmet division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101SCC Posted July 30, 2009 Share The riders where given them to ride in the mountains, Sanchez won his stage with the New Helmet. Smaller Vents but better airflow. The Atmos and Ionis never fitted my head so I moved over to a 2D Specialized...hopefully now I can go back to a Giro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linnega Posted July 30, 2009 Share Its for road racing - its primary functions in order are comply with UCI rules, be lightweight, be well vented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
