Petzl Alvio , lightest and most vented.

Seams the petzel wins just trying to find a stockist near to Aberystwyth to go try one on and purchase.

My heart sang with joy today as my kask helmet has broken for the final time. Naturally I supposed that the screws which hold the ear bits to the helmet at worked it's way out (despite the locktite) for the millionth time, however i was exhilarated to see the Ear piece snapped where the threaded bit goes into. I shall delight In not replacing this part and getting a newie.

Back to the 2003 ventex for now. F.o kask

Had a couple mate and they have lasted well ... had at Least 4 of the other petzls and prefer the lighter one... not as dry in the rain but better vented for the heat.

This seems fairly new

Skylotec Inceptor GRX

Looks good.

If they spelled Interceptor correctly I would buy one.

Sadly - the effects of UV cannot be measured - saw one guy tap his helmet with a hammer an it cracked , but he left it on the back parcel shelf of his mondeo , going from site to site - was years old , K
