Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

The link is showing "Giro Road Helmet Atmos Saros Louis Garneau". I see the same helmet in Google. The current bid is retail price, plus this is used.

Buying a used helmet is equivalent to buying a used condom; both are useless, and potentially deadly.

There are plenty of good safe helemts available new for $46 if money is an issue.

I think it's a Pneumo. Currently out of production.

Oh, and Giro stopped using that logo 2005/2006... so that's a pretty old helmet too.

Not a Pneumo, it's a Animas MTB helmet. I think it was replaced with the Athlon a couple of years ago.
