Christmas Gift Ideas: Day 12

giro athlon helmet

Treat your head to a new helmet this Christmas. Replacing the long-time BM favourite E2, the new Athlon looks the part with its 23 huge air-sucking wind tunnel designed vents and strength provided by an in-mold construction backed up with a Roll Cage internal reinforcement. Roc Loc 4 keeps it stable on your noggin and it's available in a range of tasty colours.

£89.99 from www.ultimatepursuits.co.uk
