  1. It looks like a Bell Ghisallo. Can anyone confirm?

  2. yes it´s a ghisallo.
    You can buy it in the same colour scheme if you wish.

  3. I third that. A great helmet, the Ghisallo; typically $50 cheaper than the Pneumo (and who knows how much cheaper than the Atmos).

  4. Nope- not a ghisallo, it is a prototype. Looks a lot like a ghisallo, but it is not. It is called the "Sweep" and all the Bell-sponsored teams are wearing it at the Tour- here is Hamilton's:

    Cool looking helmet! And that's good news too. It means we'll probably be able to get a Ghisallo really cheap soon!

    Thanks for the link. I'm all over that helmet when it's finally available to us grunts.

  7. actually, if you want to get technical - only Tyler wears Bell on Phonak - as he is personally sponsored by Bell. The team sponsor is Catlike. Everyone on Phonak wears Bell TT helmets, however, you will notice that only Tyler's TT helmet carrries the Bell badge (and boy does it ever, that darn badge is HUGE!!)

    i know that my friend meehs here is a stickler for accuracy.... 😄

  8. Well, if you want to be snotty, I never actually said Phonak was sponsored by Bell- I said this is the helmet that all the Bell-sponsored teams are wearing...and then, since the only good illustration I could find up close was of Hamilton's, I attached that link. But if you feel that you really need to sit around looking for ways to try and lord over people some self-perceived notion that you know more about cycling than anyone else in the whole wide world, well, have fun with all that and enjoy your own lack of self confidence. I watch a lot of cycling and attend a lot of events. I know that Phonak riders wear ugly Catlike helmets.

    The length of your reply is testament to your self-security.

    ...Exhale stress...

    p.s. my reply was to the subject line of the thread NOT your particular post

  10. I just get tired of folks who cruise the boards trying to make peole feel bad, you know? Get over it.
