I cant seem to track down this information anywhere but I have seen it on numerous athletes this season.
Here is an image of some type of new or maybe previous aero helmet on Mads Pederson, like I said I have not seen this equipment until 2023
Does anyone have any insight on this? It looks like a small aero TT helmet that we would have used or seen in the early 2000’s but now made for daily road usage.
Have no insight but Bontrager had a $100 sale off their top road helmet during the holiday season (which I took advantage of) which I now assume was to clear inventory for the intro of this yet to be released helmet.
That makes sense, I have seen a lot of riders using this helmet at the last couple of races (Balsamo also) and it really does look like an awesome aero helmet.
Definitely reminds me of the old Bell Vortex TT lid, but without the visor…and the Vortex was a damn fast lid (dunno why Google can’t find any images of it)
I dig the new helmet…always wondered why someone had not done a similar tail design before this.
Once they release some details about it, it could be on my short list for new helmets.
I was sure I’d seen some discussion of this on bikerumor or instagram where someone had zoomed in on the model name, but it must have been in a deleted story or something.
Your mind is right where mine is, it might check all the boxes I want in an aero helmet and I happen to be in the market for 2023 for a new aero road helmet.
I ride with the Lazer Bullet 2.0, which may have been discontinued. I’ve found leftovers a few places. It’s similar to the Trek helmet. It also has an aero visor which magnetically clips on and off, although I never use it.
