    A mate took his top handle on a flight last month, poured all the oil & fuel out, put it in it's box and had no problems. Drew's plan sounds alot more pro though, perhaps he was just lucky...

    I can, I had an alveo and it just feels so cheap. I could poke the brim and it would just bend, leaving a white line and a bit of a crease. It is obviously a lightweight helmet, but I think it's sacrificing durability a little too much for this. I got rid of mine as I was using it as my chainsaw helmet and felt that in the event that I was doing a dismantle and something actually whacked my head it would probably be of limited help.

    I had the same issues with the Salewa mtn trainer as others, all the lower hooks snapped off within a month. I have a pretty good local climbing shop though and he managed to replace them all without damaging the gore tex membrane. My second pair of winter climbing boots are these, Kayland Vertigo high gtx. Difficult to get your hands on but if you can they're definitely worth it, all leather, super tough, not as supple as the Salewas but once they're broken in they're more comfortable. My climbing shop also tell me they can resole them no problem so that's another bonus... Kayland SUMMER Backpacking
