The catlike helmets are not very good aero anyway. Those holes cause a lot of turbulence. Although they direct the air to your head well it causes more aero drag.
But they are different and hardly anyone else has one, and out here it's not what works, but what looks cool that's best.;) I mean, look at the fitting threads. Esh.

I'd like to see the end result of a crash test to check if their particular technology is more efficient that that of other makers. At this price they'd better protect you from everything including the flu.

LOL, lots of haters in here, I guess everyone wants to be the same (Giro,Giro,Giro...etc.) the last thing I want to do is look like the next guy...
Price,.. funny how people bark at the price but no1 flinches @ $300+ for a pair of sunglasses (jOakley),...
"Turbulence",... please,... but I'll be sure to wear a different helmet next time I ride in a wind tunnel or plan on riding faster than 100km/h...
Anyway, I like mine and I'm almost happy they aren't available in the US as the rest of the BF flock would be wearing them, each to their own IMHO.

Ride faster??? I only saw two others on my ride today and I hammered past them both on a steep climb,....Good thing they were going in the opposite direction or there would have been some serious embarrassment handed out...:p
