Wait - you are riding? ;)
It's so ugly - which we said about the original aerohead. I just...love the 2.0 the more i see it haha so I'll wait!
I recently bought the POC Procen even though I would have chosen the TT5 because the latter was never available.
The TT5 seems like it was designed by someone with more aero expertise, (sharper trailing edges that are essentially inactive in a low head position and likely beneficial in normal people’s head tilt angles, more orthogonal face shield and venting to/from wake zones and no duct gimmicks) and the Aerohead 2.0 has features that look more like what a designer thinks “looks aero” but may not be all that great, particularly the long forward nose and tangential face shield.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the TT5 is still better for most people, even in the Aerohead 2.0 ideal head attitude. The only doubt I have is I’d imagine Giro must have benchmarked the TT5 since it has been out for a while now.
Why eyeball aero when you can go meta and eyeball implied aero expertise from helmets and then infer aero from that.
