The Louis Garneau Diamond Road Helmet is a bold breakthrough in road helmet design. The LG Diamond has an incredible 40 vents to help keep your head cool. The most notable of the 40 vents are the 8 Venturi Vents at the front of the helmet that allow for maxium ventilation. To keep your head safe during a crash, LG’s Super MSB (Monocoque Structural Base) technology was developed by Louis Garneau. MSB is a ring shaped band of plastic that reinforces the helmets perimeter and wraps the head completely. Complimenting the MSB base are microplastic inserts that spread the shock of an impact to a larger surface to improve durability and protection in a crash. Finally, the composite reinforcement of a true skeleton further spreads out the shock of an impact.

The LG Diamond road helmet is very comfortable to wear and is fully adjustable by means of the Spiderlock Elite system that allows for one-handed rear fit adjustment. Additionally, the LG Diamond road helmet weighs in at only 285g! This is also the helmet that Chrissie Wellington wore during her victorious Kona campaign in 2009.

The Louis Garneau Diamond Road Helmet is gear that gets used!
