Reviews overview
What do you think about that?
This is what customers from around the world say:
I had a Meteor III when I started climbing (15 years ago) and it was time to buy a new one - looked at many others (particularly liked the looks of the Grivel Stealth), but this was the only one which was so comfortable that I kept forgetting it is on me. Just to illustrate the feeling: I was looking around in panic in some occasions to figure out where did I put my helmet, just to figure I was already wearing it.
Easy to adjust by one hand, very (I mean VERY) light, good venting... I could only recommend.
Note: there are two sizes, both fits my "normal" size head, so went for the bigger one to be able to fit a liner/beaney under it in the winter. That was a good decision.

I have been using the helmet for a year now, mostly for via ferrata and multi pitch climbing. It is really light and fits well on my head. You don't feel it in your backpack or on your head.
