Anyone have any experience with this helmet? I am thinking of trying it out (Danish retailer has it at a great price right now) just wanted to hear peoples comments. Thanks!!
Yes got one several weeks, the paint came off sent it back. Just wanted it replaced, like the helmet a lot. Did get the visor one. I told Rudy they may have a quality issue pertaining to paint. That was 4 weeks ago still have not got the replacement

I really like this helmet. I’ve been riding in mine for about a month.
Great ventilation w/ options.
I got the visor, and it’s a nice-to-have feature.
Good, comfortable fit.
I’ve had no issues w/ the matte black/gray colorway.
5/5
Ouch thats not good at all.
Thanks for the info I think i will try it out.
What’s the price?
999 Danish Kroner
.
That is about US$140.
Looking at the prices at the rest of the Danish retailers that seems to be quite good.Makes me wonder if an 02 is coming out.

I did use the Boost at IMSA for the first time and was very pleased with it (comfort, visor, noise)! I highly recommend it based on my experiences.

SGY - Do you feel you are losing anything to not using a full aero helmet?
I think its supposed to be an aero road helmet…my only question if he used the visor or wore sunglasses…wait he did use the visor sorry bout that!!
Thanks for that …just ordered one…looking forward to trying it out.

I think the differences with a full aero helmet are marginal and I can’t notice it. I did some testing in the windtunnel last year and differences between helmets are very minimal and smaller than the margin of error.
During warm races I will opt for the Boost from now on. On colder days I might consider my Wing57. At my age comfort is as important or even more important than aerodynamics.

Thanks, I like the common sense!
Seems to be a very good helmet after several rides - no problems and really like the flip up/down visor. One caution is that the print and online ads made it appear to be a RED red and in reality it is very much a safety orangy red as shown very well in SGY’s photo on his Dimond. Sent it back and they replaced it quickly - no hassle.
Just got one in white…will have it next week looking forward to trying it out on training rides. Will post my feedback after a few weeks of riding.
Rudy has the Boost 01 on sale at 60% off MSRP. So about $150 for the visorless version and $170 for the visor version. I need a new training helmet so figured why not for that price.
I’m only seeing 30% off. What am I missing?
I must have an odd shaped head, I’ve tried a couple of RP helmets, including the boost, and the helmet pushes in really hard right in the middle of my forehead. I fit fine in every other brand I’ve tried…
