A helmet that claims it can save 46 seconds over 40km… we are intrigued. Here are our first impressions of the Specialized S-Works Evade Helmet.

The brand claims that the S-Works Evade is the ultimate aerodynamic racing helmet, combining a superior wind tunnel tested design, ultra-light construction, and great ventilation for the best performance on the road or time trial.
Apparently you can save 46 seconds over 40km.
Weighing in at 290g, there is no denying that this helmet is light.
This helmet looks really neat and sleek on. A micro-fit dial and the option to adjust the height ensure a perfect fit.
We are a little sceptical about the effectiveness of the venting system.
