Good dedication crash testing helmets for a review...
Sorry can't look at the Ambush without seeing Donald Trumps hair. Let's hope they don't make an orange version.
Dumb-looking peak
Goppin, agree with the Trump combover quiff styling.
Also my Missus pointed out if you look at the side profile,right to left it looks like a certain Ridley Scott alien
Reminds me of a flat cap, aye.
I can just see me ducking under a branch or tree and catching that peek = crunch or head trauma.
How about the great British horizontal rain? Will a higher peek keep it out of your face I wonder?
No thanks I'll pass.
Think I'll keep my current one. That new one looks like a Jim Carey quiff from Ace Ventura.
No. Thank you.
I've got a Bell Spark & the peak on that is a little bit up there, but still actually works.
This is really next level.
It's a no from me.
More pointless "innovation", no doubt someone will buy them!
The outgoing ambush models are going half price. Worth a look if you're after a well ventilated MIPS lid.
