Albion Test Series Pro Helmet

Hi there,

This is the old style Albion helmet released in 2005. I was wondering if anyone would recommend this helmet or make any comments about it?

Thanks.

Hmm, I have the Test Series lid with the Ti22 grille, and I would fully reccomend it. It's super-light, really comfy and offers good protection. I'd say that the Masuri Titanium is marginally better, but the Albion usually costs a bit less.

Has anyone got one of the new style lids that guys like Ponting have been wearing for a few years now? After about 10 years, it's time for a new lid for mer, and I haven't tried that style.

I've got one. I find it more comfortable than the old style helmet. Don't think I've ever taken a proper blow to the lid though so couldn't tell you about its safety.

Thanks James90 do you have any photos of this helmet, and how much did it cost you to buy new.
