Road bike = Giro Pneumo. Mt Bike = Giro Havoc.

I hate any kind of hats. When I first started riding, the prospect of wearing a hat, aka my helmet, was not a happy thing. But, it is an absolute must.

To minimize my hat hatred, I made sure I got the features in the helmet I knew I wanted. The Pneumo is more $, but bigger vents, cooler, lighter. All a plus. I also did not "settle" for a color I didn't like. Both of my helmets are a silver white combo. The road bike is this scheme, and it compliments the mt bike. I knew regardless if I changed jersey color, or even bikes, those helmet colors would blend with anything and not be an eyesore.

Next to your bike itself, a helmet is the most single important piece of gear that you own for cycling. It is used every ride. Get exactly what you want, regardless.
