LIMAR AIR MASTER

£129.99 The Air Master debuted at the Giro d’Italia on the heads of the Astana team, and it’s lean, fairly light (250g) and, utilising the Venturi effect (where air goes into a wide area and is pushed out through a smaller area), provides impressive ventilation through the 15 channels. Good points include the chin pad and an easy-touse retention system. It’s the cheapest helmet here and there are compromises – there’s no MIPS and the internal padding is loose due to few Velcro tabs. But, if you’re looking for a cheaper aero helmet that feels light and fast, you could do far worse. nrg4cycling.co.uk
