Torpedo 7 has a teardrop special this week: http://www.torpedo7.com.au/products/LRHLRN9SD
Without a Standard Australia sticker, it would get picked on by the commissaires. Not sure of the requirements for triathlons though.Torpedo 7 has a teardrop special this week: http://www.torpedo7.com.au/products/LRHLRN9SD
The helmet has the Standards Australia sticker - I just confirmed it with T7 using their live chat.Without a Standard Australia sticker, it would get picked on by the commissaires. Not sure of the requirements for triathlons though.

The dread Torpedo 7 impulse buy virus strikes again!Just purchased one. Hard to beat at that price and I'm sure I'll find a use for it some day - even if it is just to loan out.
And I, for one, look forward to bathing in second hand sweat from numerous unidentified sources

Well, it isn't often you are presented with a standards approved TT helmet for less then $100. I imagine they'll sell out pretty fast once word gets around.The dread Torpedo 7 impulse buy virus strikes again!

If anyone does buy it, can they get Torpedo 7 to sling me some commission?
I tried, but all i could get out of them was my $10 discount for signing up one of my emails to their specials emails. Just couldn't resist for $99 shipped.
Now i'm just waiting for them to have the Limar pro104 in my size and a reasonable colour.

It was telling me no stock after I pushed add to basket
Anyway got it
I wasn't selecting colour, but this time it came up as silver as the default colour.
Perhaps there are some more left if anyone else wants one

I just checked and there are still some for sale if anyone wants one
Mine arrived this morning.
First impression - it is light. Feels lighter then my other helmet - which is probably heavy being the cheapest Met available. It has the standards sticker. I tried it on and look as ridiculous as could be expected.

I've just placed an order for one of the $40 road helmets. When it arrives I'll decide if its better or worse than my current race helmet and use the worse one for commuting
