    Are we focused too much on the wrap and not the helmet itself? My Pneumo is much cooler than my prior helmets and well suited for summer wear. Some Rudy Project helmets have a webbed hammock that minimizes the heat causing helmet/head contact thus promoting ventilation and evaporation.

    My DH had a Pneumo up until this year, when he moved to an Atmos.
    Still needs the Headsweats on those hot, sticky, 95/95 rides (95 degrees, 95 percent humidity).
    I've seen guys on the ride - wearing Pneumos, Ghisallos, Atmos, whatever - stop at a light, lean forward, and press their helmet into their head. It's like ringing out a sponge. The sweat runs out like a steady stream. It's actually quite gross.
    Besides, the Headsweat also gives the follicularly challenged guys a little SPF protection, so they don't get helmet-striped tan lines on their head!

    This is the bald guy

    Thanks everyone for your advice. I ended up buying a Halo Protex. A combination of a Halo headband and a do-rag. Hopefully, this will do the trick.

    Yours in baldness and biking,

    Vince
