So I've started looking at the following helmets which I like the looks of and seem to be good.

1) Specialized Evade - tried it once and like it tons for fit. Not sure about ventilation since I never rode with it.
2) Giro Synthe - Very new and I've never even seen on in store.
3) Giro Air Attack - I like it but people do complain about lack of airflow, didn't ride it.
4) POC OCtal - Never even see one in person but looks cool
5) POC Octal Aero - same as above, although ventilation looks terrible.

Opinions, experience etc?

Thanks,
Luis
I have an Octal. the only helmet that moves more air across my head is Catlike. But I still think the Catlike looks like an oversized golf ball.

Octal is really light.

FWIW I have Bell, Giro, Catlike, and Lazer.
