Anyone after a cheap Synthe?
I bought it online without trying one on because my Air Attack fit so well and I thought the shape would be the same. It isn't...
I've been wearing it for about 5 months (mainly with a cap cos it was a bit wide for my noggin) and I've found that the Bell Star Pro fits my head 666 times better. So it's up for sale.
There are some tiny scuffs from general use (mainly from hanging it up on the wall when I'm not wearing it and something brushing past it and there is a little fault with the roc loc system from wear and tear. The bit that fits on the occipital lobe has come away from the bit of plastic that houses the dial. This has no effect on it when in use, just a minor annoyance as it's loose when you're not wearing it. I've emailed zyro to see if the replacement part is available in the UK (I've found it for $25 in the US and I've asked them how much it would cost to send to the UK too.) and I've attached a pic highlighting what part of the roc loc system I'm talking about. I haven't got round to taking pics of the actual helmet yet.
Anyway, due to all that, I'm only asking for a bargainous £80 for a super slippery, super stealth, badass aero helmet. If I get an answer from Weber or Zyro and it makes sense for me to buy the replacement part, then I'll probably stick it on ebay or something for a bit more cash as it'll be as good as new.
