Simple, What helmet (going off of shape, not color or design) do you think looks the best? Show a picture
I love the specialized prevail. I have last yeas S-works which is pretty similar but would love to get an s-works prevail.

It is either the one that you have or the one you want.

So the Lazer Genesis (the one I have).
Or the Bontrager Oracle (the one I want if it ever comes out).

I have a specialized decibel. It's no longer in production and I'm not sure how much protection it provides, because it has a boatload of ventilation.
I don't think it is necessarily the best looking, but only specialized helmets fit my long oval head and it was cheap on closeout.
I think the new S3 looks better than the Prevail.

Although I want a Prevail but not for the price they are asking.

None. Although I try to avoid looking like a Super Mario Bros. mushroom, I don't consider my helmet to be a fashion statement.

All helmets make one look dorkier, which is hard to imagine possible, with all the colorful lycra going on already.

catlike whisper plus
very distinct, great ventilation, and apparently as aerodynamic as the prevail (https://www.bikerumor.com/wp-content/...le-helmet6.jpg)
