You can currently get the LAS TT helmet, it is CE and UCI approved. Make
sure it is one of the newer ones.

Hello all!

Any news on when the time trial helmets (as seen in the tour), will be
avaiable to the public???

Loads of people in our club use them, or something very much like them.
They offer no crash protection, which may be one reason why helmets
aren't compulsory in UK time trialling.

That is the reason for the question. This year in the TdF the TT
helmets *had* to provide crash protection. The days of the
non-protective aero fairings is ending; TT helmets will now need to be
protective.
