KaskValegro Helmet(Return to Product Page)

This helmet is super light, amazing ventilation for Hawaii & looks great! The only issue is a comfort deficit related to forehead pressure concentrated on two narrow pads. I added a forehead pad between these two & now it feels good.

This helmet is amazing if it actually fit my head. My shape is a little different.

If it wasn't for that I would have kept it.

Very high quality. Very comfortable chin strap etc.

Very light and comfortable helmet.

100 grams heavier than stated.

I have to hold ny head up when I ride.

Weight makes a difference!

Nice helmet. Didnt get to use it as it the ear straps are not adjustable and it sat right on my ear lobes. The helmet fit nicely on my big head...I just had strap issues.

So far looks and works as expected for high end helmet

This helmet seems to skimp on padding to get the weight down. I've had other lightweight helmets (favorite was Giro Prolight) but never had an issue with comfort. On rides of more than about 2 hours, I consistently get a headache. This is resolved by loosening the adjustable dial (which makes the helmet flop around--not a safe solution) or wear a skull cap (which offsets the helmet's advantage of extra ventilation and low weight). I would not recommend and will be replacing.

Very light. Good ventilation. Best strap and comfort

I bought this helmet for when it's too hot for my Kask Protone. I like the Protone and how it fits - the Valegro feels very similar (in a good way). And it is very light and breathable. However, the straps seem much stiffer than on my Protone (or Rex) and won't bend very well along my jaw - it winds up making a strange right angle. And the extra strap length is very long - I have been tempted to cut it and see if that will snug up the bend (or lack of bend). If it were not for the strap weirdness I would give it 5 stars.

Fit is incredible. Leather chin strap is Gucci, but place glasses in the rear of the helmet vs front is terrible. If glasses are on the back and I'm in a tunnel, going over 20mph, if I turn my head slightly, the glasses will catch wind and go flying :( it's my only complaint. Otherwise it would be 5 stars

I have worn a Kask Protone for a couple years. The Protone is an extremely high quality, extremely comfortable helmet so, when it was time to buy a helmet for hot weather, I bought the Valegro. First, the good news . . . this helmet provides amazing ventilation. The cooling effect for the forehead and crown of the head is far greater than for any other helmet I have ever worn. It was extremely noticeable from the very first moments of the very first ride. And, the helmet is of the same obvious premium quality as the Protone. Top quality stuff. Now, the bad news. Because of the ventilation, helmet pressure is concentrated on two points on the front of the head. On top of that, the Velegro seems to fit somewhat smaller than the Protone. Unlike the Protone that spreads the pressure across the entire forehead, the Valegro focuses all the pressure on those two spots. As a result, if you snug the Valegro normally, as you would the Protone, the Valegro will cause headaches within a few miles. Since I can't return the helmet after I've worn it, my solution is to wear the helmet looser than I would other helmets. Is this a safety problem? I don't know. Possibly. Because of this problem, I don't wear the helmet nearly as much as I originally intended. The Valegro is a fine helmet, but the pressure points are a natural result of the amazing ventilation design. If you can live with wearing the helmet a little loose, it's literally a very cool helmet! If you can't . . . don't buy it.

Im 70 years old and I ride 3-4 times a week 18-36 miles. I hardly notice the Helmet when I ride. Fits perfectly and it gives me a sense of security!!! Hope I never have to put it to a test!!!

This was quite an upgrade from my previous helmet.

The quality is certainly there.

Pay attention to the sizing chart.

I also double checked the manufacturer's website to confirm the correct size I needed.

My priorities when searching for a helmet might be different from yours. My helmet needs to be light-weight. Any positive attributes after that are a bonus.

This helmet delivers! It is the lightest one I have found since the Giro Pro Light disappeared from stores. And this helmet has much better quality in straps, buckle, and the Tightening mechanisms. It is very comfortable, the bill of my cycling cap flips up nicely without any problems, and it looks far better on me than I thought it would. And it cools very nicely. Overall 5 out of 5 stars.

awesome helmet..fits and looks great

Used this helmet while riding the Blue Ridge Parkway during July. The generous ventilation was comforting on long climbs on hot days.

This is my second Kask, fits like the other, super comfortable but this one does better with hotter conditions. Ill confirm come July and Aug but with sunny and 80s temps I can tell it will be better based on the vents.

Caught the helmet on sale and very pleased.

...that a helmet could be any lighter. It adjusts quickly and easily and fits to your head perfectly. Shake your head, no looseness at all. You forget you have it on. Excellent air flow all around. Couldn't be happier!

I have owned Kask Vertigo, Protone and now Valegro and all the models are top of the line in both quality and fit!

The light weight and superb ventilation of the Valegro is most welcome in hot weather. It's a wonderful feeling to forget it's on my head! The multiple adjustments give my hard-to-fit head and good fit.

For the 5th Star, I would like a MIPS version to maximize safety.
