I bought a Bontrager Wavecell last summer for mountain biking and I have an old Uvex helmet for road rides that has a bug mesh in the front vents. It's pretty old, I could use a new one. Uvex is no longer in the U.S. market unfortunately, but two brands (they actually look like the same helmets rebranded) I've found that have a similar bug mesh are Serfas and Abus. Also, some Kali helmets have a mesh but not all of them. There are a few other brands I can't recall offhand-they're out there but not always easy to find.
Found a nice Abus on eBay and ordered it.
