Good looking cycling equipment, including attractive helmets, doesn’t usually come cheap. Typically, as the price tag rises, so does the visual appeal. But Lazer’s mid-range mountain helmet, the Ultrax, is a great looking option for just $90(USD).
The purpose of a helmet is to protect our heads, obviously, so I must happily admit that this helmet has yet to be crash-tested. But even if I had bit the dust, the price tag makes replacing the helmet less of a headache as well; you should always replace your helmet after any impact or a season of normal riding, whichever comes first. Plunking down $90 each year, while retaining much of the performance of pricier options, is certainly much friendlier on the wallet.
The fit system of the Ultrax is what sets it apart from other helmets. It uses Lazer’s Autofit system, a spring-loaded system that grips your head just tight enough, no adjusting necessary. In our testing, we found it to be quite secure.
