After going through several helmets and brands, the GameChanger really did change my helmet game. After being stuck between M and L in Kask, I decided to give the GC a go as it kinda matched my Canyon bike. So glad I did, I love the fit (Medium), and, even though it's an aero helmet, you can feel the top vents working... plus, it feels more aero when you're riding than any other helmet I've had, you feel like it's cutting through the air. Used in the UK in the cold, worked great... now in Spain, working great. I was slightly worried about overheating when climbing here, but, honestly, it's not an issue at all. I'm first thinking to open my jersey on climbs, not thinking of the helmet. It's sleek too, looks great on... and, I kinda like not seeing them everywhere, like you do with the Kask Protone. I'm not sure what other reviewers are talking about with the padding... it's not an issue... might be to do with head shapes.

Abus GameChanger Aero Helmet
With the Abus GameChanger Aero Helmet, you get an aerodynamic design, optimum ventilation and a perfect fit. Designed and developed alongside the Movistar team, you can be assured that all the top performance features are included for you to excel. Multi-positioning helmet design technology ensures the best in aerodynamics whatever the head angle, achieved through a reduced surface area being exposed to the wind in all conditions, and the Zoom Ace dial allows fine adjustments to personalise the fit further. Your head will stay cool however hard you are working thanks to the Forced Air Cooling Technology and large air channels and however your head is tilted during different racing positions, this system remains efficient.

FlowStraps are aerodynamic, skin-friendly and won't flutter around while you ride, so you can concentrate fully. The design is ponytail compatible and the AirPort eyewear dock at the rear allows you to keep your glasses secure when you want to remove them.

Reviews
Don't buy an Abus Game Changer #abusgamechanger . The metal (genius design) fixings attached to the straps in the helmet have all corroded. I spent 150 pounds on a helmet and it's now unsafe to use. I've contacted their customer service department and they have ignored my email and aren't doing anything to resolve the problem.
