Hi all,
firstly I'm sorry to keep asking about stuff to buy, but it is so helpful getting peoples opinions on things which they have owned and used lots!
So i've decided I need something new and shiney, and this week it is going to be a helmet!
I don't want an aero helmet at the moment, but I do want a decent, well ventilated road racing helmet.
So what do people have?
I had my eye on something like a giro atmos or similar. Also I liked the look of the nexion from spiuk as you can get it in a set with the matching glasses for 100. link - http://www.spiuk.co.uk/acatalog/Nexion_Helmet___Ventix_glasses.html
its the world champion ones I like the look at, its a hope thing!
however a few reviews have said the nexion is too dated in design.
Thanks for any help you can give me, i really do appreciate it!

Also one of 220 Tri recommended buys.
I have it in yellow, which given that it didnt come in red, is nearly as fast.
is yellow the new black? or is black the new red? or is yellow the old red?
aaarrrggh my head hurts now!!
1. I saved £20 and got it for £35 because it was red white and a rather hideous gold (resprayed the gold silver as I have several cans of silver paint handy).
2. The red obviously gives me a speed advantage.
3. It's not a Giro or a Bell - I don't like following trends
happy helmet shopping
But I do have a friend who has a great one. You can see him on: http://forum.220magazine.com/fb.asp?m=16132
