Maybe if he gets hit with a 90mph Steyn bouncer in the next test and the Ayrtek does its job hopefully they will change their views. Also a high number of people I know keep calling it a 'Cycling helmet' and think the only real difference is "to keep your head cooler".

Dunno why people call it a cycling helmet as it does not look anybit like one as the peak is facing the opposite direction

i don't know about other but i think ayrteks look good, we have gotten so used to seeing Masuri's, albions etc that something different really stands out but does not mean its ugly...

Albion club mk 2 has been around since 2004 of not before and the masuri has remained constant for 15 years plus I'd think so why settle for the same shape when innovation and design suggests an improvement?

Beauty is the eye of the holder and all that.

I think if they were to try one on they might come round, i've always liked the shape and know it's best for protection but before trying on a friends ayrtek the other day did i really notice how much better the vision is with the narrow peak.

The GF has now been instructed to buy me one as a surprise for my bday end of the month :D

The peaking any longer than the other helmets we just took out the 90 angle that are on the others to stop the peak from flexing

Received precisely the same sledges yesterday, 'Victoria Pendleton' was one of the more topical names thrown at me. And with regards to Beefy and Warne's comments have they seriously never seen one these before?? I don't recall them saying anything about Sanga?

I'm not sure lol no idea what it is but the lads who designed it did a cracking job judging from all the gold medals our cyclists won!
