Submitted by Sangtak Lee a Weekend Warrior from Seoul, Korea
Date Reviewed: December 19, 2000
Favorite Trail:The banks of the Han-River & small hills near residential areas.
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $70.00
Purchased At:Alpongso MTB
Strengths:Excellent Ventilation, Light and Great Look.
Easy to adjust strap.
Weaknesses:Expensive,
Bike Setup:Blackcat with Acera/Altus transmitions, Specialized BGM Sport saddle.
Bottom Line:It was a little big for my head, but after attatching some pads inside it fits well. It's a good helmet considering shape and ventilation. It offers excellent ventilation with 15 wide holes. Also easy to adjust the length of strap, just moving and rotating button.
Trek's replacement police is attractive, but it's hard for Korean buyers to get the benefit of the policy.
Though I like it, because it is light, fits well and looks good.
