Lightest Road Helemet

[CustomMetal]

The CCT (British organisation for running hill climbs and TTS) in their infinite wisdom have introduced a new rule that helmets have to be worn!

Sensible in TT especially as you are faster with an aero lid, but very annoying in a hill climb... so what is the lightest helmet option?

The Limar Ultralight Evo is pretty light, but I would guess an aero road helmet would actually be faster for most hill climb courses.

The Lazer G1 is pretty light at 235 grams.

Kask Protone light helmet weight 215g
Kask Valegro airy helmet weight 234g
Kask Utopia aero helmet weight 266g

I believe aero helmet might be faster despite its weight.

Kabuto Flair with its ultra light setup is 170 g S/M and 185 g L/XL

I bought a Salice lid in the summer - can't remember the exact model - but it is very light indeed.

POC Ventral Lite is sub 200g

My Kask Valegro in S is 199gr. Airy and comfortable too.

See if you can find a Specialized Sub 6 from the early 1990's. Just plain, simple styrofoam.

I have a brand new one in the box.

Abus Airbreaker is 206g and probably looks the best.

HJC Furion is a helmet that doesn't buy into the "if it's aero it must be heavy" assumption. Claimed weight 200g, some sources even say sub 200. My size L claims 225 on the label, unfortunately my kitchen scale disagrees :/

[Mocs123]

The HJC Furion is interesting it claims to be aero and is reportedly light - I've never heard of the brand before, I don't think they sell them in the US.

How heavy is yours @usr?

Poc Ventral Lite is superlight (under 200 grams) and fairly aero.
