  • It's time to retire my old Kask K50. Thinking about a Protone or something else from Kask - anyone done the same?

    Was tempted to get something with MIPs but Giro seem to not fit me very well.

  • Thinking the same and also find that the Giros don't fit well. Looking at a Protone but they just look a bit odd. My C50 feels a bit Bradley Wiggins 2014 though, and the dial has broken.

  • I've got a Protone. It's nicely made but not amazingly comfortable or cool. I tend to run warm anyway, but find it makes my head a fair bit hotter than my old Prevail.

    Oh and yeah it looks a bit weird.

  • If you look a few posts up from your original post you'll see some discussion about the current Bell helmets. Zephyr and Stratus. They've got a really intuitive fit system that has suited all the riders on my team (and we don't all have the same shaped head), are nice and open to improve ventilation and the Zephyr was designed with MIPs integrated into it instead of adding it additionally like many other top end helmets do.

    I'd recommend at least giving one a try for size if you find one. If you're not doing anything particular this Sunday, you could try one out at Herne Hill as the guys from Bell will be down at ThunderTrack. :)
