Redefining your expectations of an entry-level road cycling helmet, the Kask Rapido offers a light, well designed helmet for the fraction of the price.

Expanded polystyrene shell that optimises crash impacts
100% Italian made
In-moulding innovative construction that guarantees the maximum safety level thanks to its polycarbonate shell and rear part

Ventilation is achieved by means of 24 large air vents, arranged to optimise aerodynamics
Weight: 220 gr. M Size (CE EN 1078), 240 gr. L Size (CE EN 1078)
Technologies:
M in moulding:
The innovative “in moulding” technology, joining the inner polystyrene cap to the outer polycarbonate one, ensures a better shock absorption.
MIT:
The MIT Technology, applied to all KASK cycling helmets, guarantees a higher safety and a complete protection thanks to the polycarbonate layer that covers the shell on the top, on the base ring and on the back.
Up & Down System:
The incredibly comfortable and secure "Up N Down" retention system holds the helmet in place by adjusting 3 different planes of movememnt at once.
This helmet conforms to, or exceeds EU Standards only.

Lol - I like how the actual helmet's perched between the handle bars!
I agree, why spend anything when you can look like this ...

One thing I never can understand when I see people wearing ski/snowboard helmets. Even in english winter you`ll have your head boiling..

The main arguments for a more expensive helmet are usually weight, comfort and ventilation which makes a big difference on longer rides.

Have bought Aldi ones for daughters and and absolutely fine for occasional use, but looking at the fit (which does depend on the helmet including the straps, as well as your head, Besford) and available adjustment, would not be as comfortable for me to wear daily on my commute as my admittedly branded, but otherwise almost as cheap in a sale, helmet.
Besford, I don't a) belong to a cycling club, or b) have mates to impress.

"It's also a great fit." - fit depends on your head.
"...an entry-level road cycling helmet..." - at 35 quid, let alone 65, are you kidding?
Still waiting for a valid argument as to why these 'designer' lids are worth so much more than a budget £9.99 one, impressing your gullible mates at the cycling club excluded.

Excellent helmet! I've had it for the past year and a half. Paid double this - and it was still worth it. Very light
I might buy a second one ! Heat op
