Pista Palace only carries one brand of helmet. LAS. Made in Italy and super awesome. Superissimo Awesomeolio. Cheaper than those Mexican made Bell/Giro helmets and more stylish, comfortable, and safer. You know, we just got the 2009 Paris-Roubaix video and I gotta say a couple of things, first of all Tom Boonen, sure he has a drinking and cocaine problem, but who doesn't? We love the Tomicker and Tom Boonen for the Frites! Even since he won his first world championship and Paris-Roubaix on a TIME, we love the big guy. Anyways...that unSpecialized helmet and glasses look like crap on him. Seriously, no bueno.

And talking about hideous helmets, the Saxo Bank helmets look like something that the Joker from Batman would wear. Those are THE WORST! Poor Fabian has to wear that thing. I must confess that I did take satisfaction at the Saxo Bank team going to the from only to be jettisoned shortly thereafter. I didn't have to see those lame helmets on the TV any more. Boonen for the Frites! Boonen for the Frites!

LAS helmets are simply the best. Maybe your local bike shop doesn't carry them, but Pista Palace does and we will ship it to you for free! What is it about them we like? Great colors. ITALIAN MADE. The helmets almost seem to possess a prehistoric look. Your neanderthal head will certainly fit one. It ventilates better than any helmet. It certainly is a helmet that no Freddy will be wearing. Super safe. Not made in Asia or Mexico. For those with gentle flesh is comes with a soft chin chamois.

Well, lets examine the models:

VICTORY!!! At $210 this is the top of the line for 2010. The helmet is light and gets great air flow. We have been riding this helmet for a month now and it is our favorite. Easily accommodates your Oakley's, too. It weighs 230 grams and has 25 HUGE vents. The 1 piece liner is removable and washable. And there is lots of mesh so no buggies flying on your bald head or afro. I gotta' say this helmet has wicked adjustment for both the Height AND the Crown. It comes in 2 adjustable sizes so everyone can look cool. Made in Italy! And for those who are willing to pay $230, you can have Victory Supreme!

The Squalo was our favorite up until the Victory. We had been riding it for a year and it is a great helmet. We think it is the most stylish of the LAS line. It possesses 29 perfectly placed vents to create style and function. Like the Victory, the helmet is 230 grammos. Same adjustment mechanism as the Victory but it comes with 2 liners, a winter liner and a summer liner. And seriously, the Squalo looks totally bitchin' and radical. $180 buys you this piece of plastic pasta.

The Istrion comes in one simple size. It has a very low profile yet still has 27 massive vents. I really don't know what Istrion means, but I think it has the coolest name. Istrion, Istrion, Istrion. It comes with a 1 piece mesh liner made of Coolmax. Sharp. It it fits your head and if you can pay $180, you can own one. It weighs 270 grams.

The Sky S II is the entry level helmet for LAS. One size fits all, just like a magnum. It, too, has 27 vents just like the Istrion. Here is the catch line "Italian Style with a Great Price!". Just like a Chinese bike painted in Italy! $80. At that price you can buy 3!

Cronometro. Cronometro. Shaped like a sperm, this thing screams fast! Absolutely nothing on the planet is sexier. We recommend wearing this helmet wherever you go. Bar, Target, Slayer concert, Love Making, it will shave time off everything. It has great adjustment. 54cm-61cm. Coolmax liner w/ ventilation included. Slits in the outer shell for your pleasure. Built in and detachable wind visor. Wind tunnel tested to be the most aerodynamic piece of matter ever produced.
