Louis Garneau Voice Helmet Women's

Most of the helmets in Louis Garneau's extensive line make ventilation one of their top priorities. The Voice Women's Helmet is no different, but its focus on ventilation manifests in a different way. The Voice is a winter helmet, so it uses airflow to keep you dry and comfortable without compromising the warm cocoon created by the helmet's extended coverage. That extended coverage and a removable, insulating cap recommend the Voice specifically for fat bike snow floating and winter bikepacking trips, but it serves just as well on the daily commute in frigid climes. The helmet's shell consists of the same in mold construction as much of LG's summer weight line. The recipe involves a polycarbonate face and an EPS foam body that are melded to produce a more structurally sound whole. Unlike the summer models, the winter specific Voice's shell is interrupted by a minimal number of vents, but it does include evacuation channels that pull vapor away from your glasses or goggles. The shell is stabilized on your head with a Spiderlock Creo device, and LG's Micro Dial system provides single handed adjustment. As mentioned above, the Voice replaces a cycling helmet's usual light padding with a cushioned cap. It ensures the shell rests comfortably against your head while eliminating the need for a winter skull cap by adding an insulating layer to the helmet. The helmet also includes detachable ear covers and a rubber goggles fastener to tailor insulation levels to the weather on a given day and keep cold weather eyewear in place, respectively.
