Product Information

Internal channeling on the Tonic keeps air moving across the head, and probably reduces the weight a little, too. Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary. If you are on a personal connection, like at home, you can run an anti-virus scan on your device to make sure it is not infected with malware. Please note: Manufacturers can sometimes change the specification of the products from time to time. Five years on a helmet that’s seen lots of use is plenty, as the primary EPS (expanded polystyrene) material does degrade with sweat and sunlight exposure.

On the Blade, the MIPS liner is sort of an afterthought, so it blocks much of the ventilation baked into the helmet’s basic design. Their impact tests evaluate a helmet's ability to reduce the linear acceleration and rotational velocity of the head resulting from a range of head impacts a cyclist might experience. The plastic cradle can also move up and down within a range of five steps, but it’s just as stubborn to move and is best left alone once set to preference.

With 28 vents, the Tonic offers lots of exposure to the air and wind, and should offer good ventilation in theory. In contrast, the TS+ Turnfit System uses the same, smoothly operating wire-and-cradle guts, but is adjusted with a ratcheted knob in a more conventional location on the bottom rear. You will be covered for the first 10 days of ownership against theft and accidental damage, so you can purchase with confidence.

Ben Delaney of BikeRadar rated the Tonic highly, saying that with its fit and finish, it doesn’t feel like an entry-level helmet at all…and I agree. It’s a smidge taller in profile than the Blade, and it’s styled a little rear-heavy, although it still keeps the generally trim shape. If damage has been caused through wear and tear, improper care, or some other factor beyond our control then it will not be covered.

Once the temperature drops and cold wind is no longer welcome, the winter kit is your best companion to keep you going strong in every season.Despite never crashing on it, its foam padding had also disintegrated to the point where I couldn’t sew it up to keep its shape any more. Since 2011 Virginia Tech have been providing unbiased helmet ratings that allow consumers to make informed decisions when purchasing helmets. An easy-to-use dial at the back handles circumference fit, and the rear cradle can be adjusted for height.

The loud graphics and yellow shell maximized my visibility while bike commuting, sure, and many friends thought the Transition looked bad-ass, but as an actual helmet, it really wasn’t all that great. At 230g for a Medium, it weighs the same as helmets more than twice as expensive, such as the Specialized S-Works Prevail or the Bontrager Velocis.

Helmets with more stars provide a reduction in concussion risk for these impacts compared to helmets with fewer stars. If you find a fault with your item, send it back to us and we'll take a look at it as soon as we can. In many ways, I get along with the Tonic better than I do the Blade, and in the quality stakes, there isn’t much difference between them at all.
