Price Paid:
$90.00
Purchased At:
Local Bike Shop
Strengths:
Lightweight, well-ventilated
Weaknesses:
Virtually no padding (but what high-end helmet has padding these days??)
Bike Setup:
'08 Specialized Stumpy
Bottom Line:
I bought this helmet to replace my aging Specialized S1. The Propero reminds me a lot of my old helmet. There is very little padding, but it's extremely light weight so it's very comfortable. Good ventilation. The straps adjust well and so far I have no complaints.
4 chilis for value because Specialized is overpriced in my opinion.

Well ventilated and low profile helmet. I had a Giro Hex that I broke, but so far this helmet is working great. You can remove the visor if use it when you need it.
Weaknesses:
The adjustable strap is a bit weak, not much of a grip.

Bottom Line:
Great helmet for the price.
