    anyone got one?
    Seeing them for a ton and need a new lid as my 2nd lid is ancient and in dire need of replacing.
    These look nice and price seems reasonable.
    Any thoughts?

    got a link? I have a Mavic ksyrium helmet. I love it. It's nice and light and I think it looks as well as any helmet can look. Got it a few years ago so can let you know if it's the same one if you can send on a pic.

    That's not dissimilar to mine. I guess mine is a previous model but it looks like it's just the side panel that's different. Like it said, it's very light and that's the main reason I like mine. I'd typically wear it more in summer than winter. If you look at the yellow plastic strap inside the helmet, it's thinner and a little flimsier than you get on a Giro (the other brand I have experience of), but I haven't had any problems with that at all. I'm not in the market for a new lid atm but I'd be snapping up one of those if I was.

    Cheers for that info mate.
    I've a giro (thats the one I'm discarding) and the padding in them is rubbish, tho overall they are a great helmet. The padding in the Mavic looks a lot better. My brother's Kask Mojito has lovely, plush padding and the strap is great, I think its leather at the buckle.
