"A great, cheap entry-level aero helmet. The looks are okay (has a huge tail), but I do think it makes me faster. The helmet takes some time to get on, especially if you plan on wearing sunglasses. If I were choosing again, I might go with something else, but there really ins't anything near this price!"m.a.burghart
Fit
Snug, lots of adjustability
Comfort
No complaints.
Value
Pretty cheap speed. I'll be honest, I bought this helmet because it was the cheapest I could find.
Appearance
It looks okay. I got the black version with some black and white stripes (on sale). I would prefer if it was all black, but let's get real: it has a huge tail so looks is kinda irrelevant.
Performance
I like it and wear it at every race and TT. I have no issues with over heating, and i think the ear covers help.
Strengths
Cheap, AERO
Weakness
VERY difficult to get on, especially in a race

Ease of use
The was my first aero helmet, so I don't have any comparisons, but it is nearly impossible to wear sunglasses with this helmet. You have to put the helmet on first, and then carefully shove your sunglasses in and they have to sit at a weird angle. If the face shield is on, it is also difficult to get the helmet on quickly.
