Finally, an urban lid that’s as high-tech as it is cool looking.Calling on their 26 years of experience crafting some of the finestrace and enthusiast helmets available, Giro has paired a new,lower-volume foam with a shape that tapers at the edges to build ahelmet that’s CPSC-approved but still plenty trim. The Reverb has lotsmore vents than most city helmets, uses Giro’s quick and easy Auto Locadjustment system, and tacks on a removable visor that looks just likea cycling cap. Best of all, it comes in 11 different color options andwill sell for a very reasonable $60.
