How to fit a bicycle helmet plus competition

The lovely people over at Madison recently got in touch and wanted to offer London Cyclist readers 12 of their beautifully designed Bell Helmets. I jumped on the offer and after the useful video on how to fit a bicycle helmet I have details on how you can enter!

Introducing the Bell Faction Helmet 2011

These skate inspired helmets should convince even the most image conscious to don a helmet for head protection on the bike. The design is stylish, comfortable and fits well.

Each Bell Faction helmet features 12 vents for ventilation, high impact protection and excellent resilience to knocks and scrapes. They come in three sizes (small 51cm to 56cm, medium 54cm to 59cm, large 58cm to 63cm) and have adjustable straps to get the perfect fit.

They are worth £31.99 at Wiggle but we have 12 to give away by Friday.

Competition now closed! Thanks to all who have entered! Winners contacted shortly..

A very special thank you to Madison for offering these helmets to London Cyclist readers.

    It’s all about the white one surely?

    Matt Black or Matt Primer are probably the nicest!

    Some great designs. Not too keen on the pink one.

    Hard choice. Favourite the brown jigsaw.

    My wife has one of these, in pink, and I’ve been envious of the shape (if not the colour!) for ages. A matte black one would be a stylish alternative to the ugly, if functional, lid that I use at the moment.

    Black or grey for sure.

  7. Jerome 03/05/2011 at 9:03 pm #

    Yellowflowers for sure!!

    Matt black to go with my matt lack Bianchi, about time I got one!!!

    I am digging the matt black the most, matt grey nice too!

  10. Justin 04/05/2011 at 9:51 am #

    Yellow flowers, would brighten up my ride.

  11. Clive Friend 04/05/2011 at 12:12 pm #

    Has to be the white one for visibility – couldn’t do the pink!

  12. Andrea M 04/05/2011 at 3:05 pm #

    The yellow flowers one is very stylish!

  13. el-gordo 04/05/2011 at 3:08 pm #

    I love the camouflage looking one, but will drivers be able to see me in it?

  14. Roxy 04/05/2011 at 5:19 pm #

    I like the matt primer. The others designs are too bright and there’s too much going on.

  15. Alex 04/05/2011 at 6:40 pm #

    Monkey skull for me!

  16. Elaine 05/05/2011 at 8:58 am #

    I’d like the fuschia for a Penelope Pitstop look. Failing that, the yellow one is nice and bright too

  17. ursula 05/05/2011 at 11:23 am #

    Fuschia sounds good…to go with my hair colour perhaps?

  18. joe 05/05/2011 at 1:20 pm #

    Yellow please, drivers won’t miss that!

  19. Brad Jarman 05/05/2011 at 10:41 pm #

    Bright white for me, please!

  20. Andreas 05/05/2011 at 10:46 pm #

    Thanks guys for all the responses I’m going to close the competition here! Good luck everyone!
