Took this bad boy (Rebel Helmet) out for a spin last weekend 85 miles on the hottest day of summer and it felt great! The wind flows through the helmet keeping your head cool. I love it so much that I’m buying another one in a different color to rotate. I’ve never bought 2 of the same helmets my life until I tried the Rebel!
Have ridden in my Rebel for the past two weeks and love it. It looks sleek and feels like nothing is on my head. I went with the white as that is the style nowadays and it stands above others with the design and carbon fiber details. After seeing the Bahrain Victorious Team wear them in the Tour I knew it must be mine! I was worried about the "Eyewear Ports" being in the back of the helmet where the worry of my Kelion's flying off is there.. but.. they are locked in and I have zero worries. They slide in and out super easy (with one had while riding) as Rudy Project has made the grooves smooth but they also almost click into place (both upside down and right side up). I get comments on how they fit perfectly in the back instead of the front - different is always nice. I took the bug net out as I have a huge head and I lose some vertical space with the netting but the extra padding that comes with goes in easily and it fits with no issue. The "Fidlock" is awesome once you get use to it. They have it on the Egos so I already had it down but it is odd now to go back to my Nytron that has the standard clip. The 5 Star rating from Virginia Tech is a HUGE plus too, that on top of everything else above is a reason to get the Rebel.
