Pros: plain colour easy to change size
Cons: none so far!
"I like the colour of this helmet because it is plain and black. It seems sturdy and of good quality, and is fairly easy to alter the size with a wheel on the back of the helmet.
The air vents means your head does not really get sweaty, even when it's hot."

"I had a Bell helmet before and was happy to see the new range have proper anchor points regarding the straps. I decided to go for the Venture instead as it's around the same price and has some better features - nice and light, has web/mesh in the front holes to catch the flies(!), and generally look good. Fits nice as well."

Pros: lightweight, comfortable
"Not having cycled for nearly 30 years this is my first experience wearing a helmet. This one is lightweight, well-made, and comfortable. The only downside is that the instructions for getting the straps right were a little confusing, but in fairness I may have been a dim on that front!"

Pros: lightweight, perfect fit, looks good
Cons: straps are a little uncomfortable
"I have been cycling for around a year now and after a trip to Afan forest was arranged I decided that I should buy a helmet.
I've never worn one previously but this helmet is very comfortable (with some adjustment) and lightweight. After 5 mins you forget your wearning it.
The vents are brillient at keeping your head cool and the helmet looks good as well.
I was concerned that I would look like a right plank but it is very stream lined and the visor works great too
Hope this helps"

Pros: price, lightweight, good ventilation
Cons: straps could be better
"This is my first cycle helmet and although I've only used it twice wearing one isn't as bad as I thought it would be.
I was worried it would feel heavy and that my head would get hot. Neither of these happened, the helmet is very light and the holes help air pass over your head keeping it cool.
If you are considering a helmet for the first time I can highly recommend this one.
My only gripe is that the straps could be more comfortable, they seem to press against your cheeks but you don't notice it after a few minutes of wearing."

"I've put off having a cycle helmet for some time, now finally having conceded defeat to my partner, I have this one. What can I say about it, good value, good quality and best of all I don;t look a twit in it! Performance is good and head temperature is kept nice thanks to the vents on the top. I also like the size adjestment which give quick and acurate sizing for your head. All in all, I would recommend this product."

"The fact that I'm still here to write this article tells you the heltmet works! Admittedly, I've not had a serious incident on my bike, and touch wood, I never will.
This lid looks cool, is tough, is comfortable, light... Does the trick, if y'ask me!
