Do a fair bit on road, 40km commutes (2way) a few times a week and then an off road MTB ride every couple of weeks. My e2 is getting past its best. Any recommendations for a helmet that looks ok on road (no peak) and off road?

I use one of [url= http://www.spiuk.com/home/productos-ficha-ing.asp?id=241 ]these[/url], both on and off road and it comes with a peak. I also have a Met Parachute and a Bell which don't get used too often.

Have a look and see what fits. I like Met helmets as they seem to fit me.

Another vote for the Specialized 2D.
I never bother removing the peak, Specialized peaks seem to work OK on the road bike too, no problems with vision.

I use the cheaper version of the spec one and find it fine for both i also don't remove the peak.

Just get another E2. Works for me on and off road.

One that fits properly. Fit is the single most important aspect with helmets.

I got a Giro hex from crc and I use it on the road as well as off. The adjustable peak is great and it has enough airflow for my bonce.
