When I was in windtunnel, they suggested that helmet gave slight advantage over Bell.

When I came out of windtunnel, I was going much faster – but that was mainly due to lower head position. It’s hard to isolate the impact of swapping helmets.

Would still be interested in knowing more though please and any comments you may have on your current helmet which looks like a Giro?

Best Wishes

Question please which hooks in with your other posts on wind tunnel testing and review of aero helmets:

iirc you found an improvement in the tunnel switching helmet? Did you ever change to use a different one or just concentrate on adapting your head position?

I only ask as noticed in photo from Sat (http://www.photoboxgallery.com/Craigzad/photo?photo_id=3504897419&vendor%5Fid=3028326) that you appear to have “old faithful” back on your bonce?
