New Giro Ghetto Attack helmet

It was pretty boring so far during the tour so I made this.

What material for the cover?

70.3 swim cap
.

That is a swim cap.

Sweet…never thought of that. All these years I was using duct tape for my spring/fall helmet to keep the wind out when I could use all the countless swim caps from events that don’t have a place to go!

I must admit that was not my idea, I think I’ve seen it used by English TT riders.

Ha, I can see the 70.3 on the inside of it. Nice.

What’s the cooling like. Can you give any numbers?

I think you meant to reply to the OPs post?

All you need now is a dramatic video detailing the design process and the numerous wind tunnel trials and you should sell thousands.

That is awesome! I’m sure some hipster will offer your $400 for it…:slight_smile:

Very clever, consider your idea officially stolen.

What eye shield is that?

LG Visor i think
.

One thing to consider does the swim cap change the safety of the helmet in a crash? In terms of the swim cap not sliding but rather grabbing against the surface it becomes contact with

The swim cap would just rip when it hit the pavement. It is pretty stretched out, and one little abrasion would snap it. I would imagine the integrity of the helmet stands.

I think Team Sky beat you to this idea:

Can I market my carbon swim snorkel with it?

You need one of those weird swimcaps with the google lenses built in.
