Got my old 90's steel lugged bike, now need to look the part, the clothing bit is easy, but what about the helmet, i'd like something inconspicuous,... but still modern, maybe something that harks back to the old days in style, and so i can wear brimmed cap under it turned up,.... 🙂
any ideas? or just Pantani bandana and mtfu?
Didn't exist in the 90s did they?
you don't want one trust me, just wear a modern one if your going to bother.
Thinking something like this...
It's black
It's not covered in graphics
It's a roundish shape
I like Bell helmets good fit...
Kind of reminds me of the old strappy helmets from the front

yehh i'm thinking more hints a bit of retro than, actual full on retro, damn that is ugly 8)
Just wear a cycling cap, or get an old schoolish looking helmet and whack a cap underneath it. Retro look sorted.
If you search for vintage cycle helmet on ebay a few of the old school roadie sausage helmets come up.
How retro do you want?
Sausage hat for the old-school roadie look?

Cinelli Aero for the 'just out to smash comp record' look?

Or something a bit more outre for the 'yes, I'm a triathlete, how can you tell?' look

Obviously CRC are rying to get rid of them because they look shite, and no bugger with functioning eyesight would want one... But Their loss is your gain!
