i may wait for the aero helmet that specialized came up with. Hopefully it looks like i thought the attack would look.
You mean these...


...there's a local guy that got a trial one from specialized, its actually the pharma/quickstep team helmet, I think it might be a little different. I think the back looks funny on them.

Of course, this is coming from the guy that now has a soup bowl for a helmet.

Yeah, I know, but I look bad in all helmets. I figured this one would look more "commuter-ish" for riding to work and help keep the head warmer in the winter months. I also wanted something a bit more toned down since my current aeon is a bit 80's inspired when it comes to color...


edit: ugh, thats a horrible picture of me. That was 70 miles into a century on a 105+ degree day...you can see the salt buildup in my hair. I also needed to shave.
