Troy Lee A1 all mountain helmet.

That is all.

Not official yet that’s a leaked advert.

Could be nice. Bet it make POC and sweet look cheap…

I think TLD have a big release due middle of next week with some new signature helmets from the DH boys etc so might hear more then?

Gwin hill and peaty I guess

want

Does the helmet have rockets mounted on it….. as the graphic suggests?

The graphics suggest more that its a £5 children’s helmet sold by toysRus.

Like most TLD kit then – not designed to match M&S chino shorts :-))

its rather big..

Edit. Job already done

Helmet does not look to bad on this new video of the TLD A1 helmet – does contain loud and scary Omen type music on the video though.

zangolin whats the Red bull one is that what youre on about ??.

The red bull is gwinns

As haribo said that’s Gwinns A1.
I’m just interested to see what they look like and what TLD’s take on a lightweight MTB style helmet is – not many good photos or info about yet.

Who stole my original post?!

Mods will have had to remove it, the thread on ride.i.o. magically disappeared too. Troy lee have just released the ad and a youtube clip but no official images to look at just yet.

Boooring.

I had the official release of original saint brought forward by 2 months. True story. There were meetings and everything…

Zangolin’s 2nd link has some pretty good images of the lids straight from the troy lee site, liking the black,white and red one – the others are a bit ‘out there’ for me.

Where the Pukey emoticon

That looks turd.

Put ya fingers over the pic from the rear vent to peak, add some candy apple red. Iron Man

After making the D2 & D3, how the f*ck can they make something look that bad???

A little more info and close up pictures here [/url]and here and here

Pinkbike report says rrp for the silver and black one is $165 so prob about £160 by the time it lands over here….

I have no idea why you would spend that kind of money on a lid. It’s not as if it has performance enhancing properties.

You’re just buying the brand.

Embarrassing graphics really, how out of date does that look relative to Poc, Urge etc? Should that matter – personally yes. The gold one looks like something bett lynch would wear

It looks like it’s been designed by a 10 year old.

“back in the day” TLD did some nice stuff and then the “design” just became a garish logo slapped on any old generic gear.

FIFY

The black/silver/red one looks lovely imho. First helmet I’ve wanted based on looks alone.

20 years ago i had a bell image painted up by Troy Lee to match John Tomacs famous eagle paintjob, that was cool looking and something i treasured – that A1 all mountain helmet up there looks like a £10 kiddy helmet from Halfords, why does cycling kit need to look garish and tacky?.

Seeing this has not changed my mind about wanting a new Bell Super one bit.

Congratulations you have won the internet.

Anyone buying THAT is going to want a Go-Pro mount
