THE .5 (Point Five) full-face helmet BikeRadar 6/2011 - Featuring the same shape as THE's popular 'One' helmet, the Point 5 is something of a bargain, seeing as it achieves its striking looks with the use of ABS plastic, rather than the pricier carbon fibre of the original.

Alpina Mythos helmet BikeRadar 7/2011 - Alpina's Pheos was an expensive but disappointing piece of kit, which is probably why the company has equipped the Mythos with all of its best features and made it some £50 cheaper.

Fox V3R (10) BikeRadar 5/2010 - The idea is simple – Fox already make one of the most successful and desirable helmets in motocross, so why not scale it down for mountain bikers?

Lazer Helmets Helium (10) BikeRadar 8/2010 - Despite the Helium moniker and more advanced look and feel (not to mention price), Lazer's latest helmet isn't much lighter than the similarly styled and long-standing Genesis model it supersedes.
