Rudy makes the best lenses around. The Black/transition lens is no exception. Works at dusk. Works in the afternoon. Survived a 9:30pm criterium.
I have had POC, Oakley and Zero RH+.....
They are all sub par compared to the solid, light, stuck to your face feeling that Rudy Kelion has. And the lenses are Zeiss level, making your eyes really comfortable and vision second to none. After getting the white with multi-laser green I immediately got a second pair in black with the multi-laser yellow.
I love my Rudy Kelion.
I wore this helmet in IM Madison and was so aero fast on the downhills the wind tunnel around my skull just propelled me forward and I took 3rd place in my age group!! Thankyou Rudy Project for rushing the Nytron helmet to me for race Day!!
The large eyeshield on the Wingdream is great for being able to see everything in front of and around you. Riding into the sun was anot a problem, though Id really like some lenses that are more mirrored (for esthetics).
Putting this on in T1 was super easy too. All my old aero helmets have been tight and difficult to get my ears in without damaging the helmet a little after years of use, this one goes right on without any interference. The buckle takes a bit of practice to get, but is much easier than the classic one once you're used to it.
After buying a couple of repair parts for my 23-year old Rydon's, I got notification from Rudy Project that there was to be a factory warehouse moving sale. Desperately in need of a new helmet, I spied the Protera+ in my size at a fantastic price. I didn't need to be told twice and bought the helmet without any further consternation. Showed up super quick. I've used the Protera+ 6-8 times now. It feels like it was made for my head. I couldn't ask for more.
