quick question
 
I remember reading about/seeing a product that goes over the bottom of a helmet to reduce the wind draught from underneath.

Does anyone know what it is called and where you can get them?

thanks,
Chi

Didnt get fantastic reviews when the mags tested them, kept popping off when you turned your head.

Thanks guys. The helmet pelmet looks like there is a lot of 'fabric' that hangs down below the bottom of the helmet.

I was actually thinking of something that lies flat around the bottom of the helmet (ie If you put the helmet down on a table, you would not know it was attached). I would imagine that it would look something like a giant flat neoprene doughnut (you put your head through the hole in the middle.

Has anyone seen this product or is it a figment of my overactive imagination?

I think thats the same kind of thing that Andy linked to. Mag test comments still apply!

Hmm, the one the mag tested was the rubber loo seat style thing, it didnt have the skirt like that one. they said it worked but kept coming off the helmet each time they turned their heads.
