Zen Beetle

Thanks Lozzo. Your comparison of the Condor and Chaser is spot on! Tried the Chaser on at Heingerrick and was happy with the fit, feeling as comfortable as the Condor. Strangely enough, I also found that it didn't feel quite as tight as the Condor. You'd think that being a brand new helmet it would be the other way round. Anyway, I ended up buying the Chaser Legend Phil Read which has a more tasteful and classical black and white design than the more garish other designs available. Like Lozzo pointed out, the venting on the Chaser is better and has an intermediate setting. I also like the fact that the knobs are much chunkier and far easier to change with gloves on. Although still expensive at £240 I thought it a good buy bearing in mind that it would normally cost £369. So hopefully, it will be another five years before I change helmet.
