I have started climbing again after a few years out of the sport and i bought one of these as recommended by a member of shop staff. The helmet is very comfortable and secure on the head and is very light in that you cant really feel it on your head. the straps are soft so they dont irritate your face or neck and is generally a very comfortable light wieght helmet for a very good price.

Used this for a year working in place of a standard hard hat. It is much lighter and with the strap it does not fall off when you bend down or bang into something. Lack of peak also improves vision so you are less likely to bump into something. Envy of everyone. Very light and comfy & good price

Bought this helmet as it waqs a bit more trendy looking than other models and as it was the cheapest model. Fairly comfy fit, and the clip to hold a head torch elastic in place are good. The adjusting wheel is ok but does not do it up as tightly as you may need whilst on. Worn in winter so far, ventilation in the summer may be a bit limited.
