SPECIALIZED PROPERO II HELMET
The days when a bike helmet looked like
an oversized mushroom are long gone,
and vanity is no excuse for not wearing
this essential piece of lifesaving kit. Luckily
today you can find a helmet in almost any
shape, size and colour, for if you want to
bomb down a steep hill, sprint along a flat
stretch of road, or simply go about your daily
commute. The Specialized Propero II helmet
is a race-inspired design, but its great fit and
fantastic value means that it’s well suited
for any rider. Thanks to its 4th Dimension
Cooling and matrix internal reinforcement,
ventilation is excellent, and the helmet’s
soft DryLite webbing won’t stretch when it
gets wet – whether you get caught out in a
dramatic downpour or too sweaty on that
killer hill! Its four position height adjustability
means that you can securely and easily refit
the helmet while riding. Specialized say
they set out to make the best road helmet
with this model. We say they aren’t far off.
