The Abus Powerdome is a new budget aero helmet that was released quietly during Eurobike 2022 and is now available to purchase.<\/p>\n

The road bike helmet<\/a> features tech originally seen on the brand\u2019s top-flight GameChanger aero helmet<\/a>, including the lightweight fixed FlowStraps and Zoom Ace cradle system, at a lower price.<\/p>\n

Priced at \u00a3129.99 for the MIPS<\/a> version or \u00a3109.99 for the non-MIPS helmet (international pricing TBC), the Powerdome is available in three sizes and four colour options.<\/p>\n

The helmet has a more traditional look than the GameChanger, with 17 vents and what Abus claims to be an aerodynamic profile.<\/p>\n

The helmet features Abus\u2019 Forced Air Cooling Technology.<\/p>\n

Abus says this \u201cuses the Venturi effect\u201d to force air from the front to rear vents, improving airflow.<\/p>\n

The helmet is manufactured in Italy and uses an in-mould construction.<\/p>\n

In-mould construction bonds the outer shell to the EPS body of the helmet, improving durability.<\/p>\n

The helmet is available in a handsome sparkly bronze, ruby red, pearlescent blue and grey.<\/p>\n
