is there really a difference in the helmets?? or just a case of not having gone through aus inspection n recieving a sticker??
for the same make/model, no. One has a sticker for au sale, one for usa./can, eu etc etc
but if you do crash and have to claim, cops are pretty on to it these days, i recently heard storys of them checking helmets when and the scene or when the police report was filed and if you dont have the right stickers its game over
i recomend going to IRIDE talking to ross and getting a garneau, there cheap, super comphy(for me any way)and come with aus, eu and us stickers on the inside!
really… another sponsor, gene?
your jersey is going to look like one of those crazy italian trade teams
What’s the count now? HellKrew, TDR, iRide, Commuter Cycles, Cycling Express (?)
However- if you wear a helmet only on track then as long as it is an approved one then it does not need an AUS/NZ sticker, Soemone correct me if I’m wrong but the CA rules changed this last year.
A lot or riders are using the German Caske sprinting ones- think I need one, they look mean!!!
I was thinking about this the other day,
What is the deal with international riders helmets?
I raced cyclocross in a non-anything approved Bern helmet, which specifically said all over the box ‘this is not a helmet’, multiple times.
has anyone tried holding shit on the fridge with specialised shoes? boss, i believe the kids say
this makes me happy, all reservations about purchasing ridiculous aero helmet, gone, dayne, care to berate further? discs and aero helmets are, as they say, bawwws!
The rules are here on the CA site, anything with apprpval for track, but on the road it must have AS2063 sticker.
I am so buying a Casco helmet for track 
Helmet Regulations
AUSTRALIAN STANDARD AS/NZ 2063 - Bicycle Helmets
The helmet regulation was introduced as a result of cyclists having to comply with the Australian Road Rules. The basic rule is that in all Australian events on the road and track an approved helmet with the Australian Standard sticker (AS2063) must be worn.
The only events where this may not apply are noted in Rule 3.2.02 and are explained as follows:
a) TRACK - In all track events competitors shall wear an approved AS2063, ANSI, Snell or EN approved helmet
b) ROAD - In all road events with the exception of International UCI events (provided permits have been obtained), an Australian Standards approved helmet AS2063 shall be worn.
The CA Board amended rule to permit all competitors to wear internationally approved helmets, if an Australian Road Rules exemption is granted. This is of particular relevance in the road time trial as it removes the requirement by commissaires to determine between international and domestic riders as well as providing fairness to all competitors in being able to wear an approved aerodynamic helmet.
The events for which such an application may be sought include, but may not be limited to;
UCI Road World Cups (Men and Women)
One-day Road Races or multi-stage Tours which have been approved for inclusion on the UCI calendar.
The Australian Open Road Championships or similar event, where overseas or professionally contracted riders with a UCI registered team are competing and the results contribute to UCI ranking points.
3.2.06. Any modification to an approved helmet is strictly prohibited, including; swapping or tampering with stickers; structural or aerodynamic modification.
Failure to comply with this regulation will result in the rider being withdrawn from the event in addition to any other penalty that may be applied by the race official.
man thats the last time i try and help out a forum memeber and a dirty deeds sponsor/all round nice guy
plus i think its the only shop in melb that does garneau
i tease, gene… 
ross is indeed a ruler (not a DDCX sponsor, but a strong contributor to its fun though) and people should definitely be encouraged to patronise his shop.
you cant help it that you are in demand as an endorsed rider/racer. i blame it on your general stoke and level of positivity.
Just a heads up (heads ->helmets. Get it?) spotted The uber hip Catlike Whisper Plus helmets for sale in Mega Bike in Adelaide in a range of sweet colours (including matte black) for a cool 300 bones. I’m assuming they are readily available in Australia. Now to find $300…
