My favourite helmet is a MET Trenta CF which is ridiculously light at 215 grams and basically I don't notice I'm wearing it, neatly encases my head with no extra bulk, well ventilated for our hot summers (it helps it's in white, or so I imagine). I've used heavier helmets with less ventilation and frankly I notice the difference. So, it's a factor.
