Test 2017: Rudy Project helmet and goggles - Rudy Project helmet and goggles for road cyclists put to the test

As a pair, the Racemaster (helmet) and Tralyx (goggles) look like a single piece, especially in the gold version. In addition to the visual appearance, both parts also offer some technical highlights: The parking garage integrated into the back of the helmet holds the goggles securely in place, although threading them in while riding requires a little practice. The height-adjustable headband with twist lock is a good standard feature in this price range, while extras such as the chin strap with reflective material and the fly screen padding supplied as standard round off the package; weighing 280 grams (size M), the helmet is not particularly light. The easy-to-change, one-piece, tinted lens of the Tralyx offers the best protection against wind and UV light; the adjustable nose and goggle temples of the 29 gram goggles, each part of which can be purchased separately, are practical. With a set price of 430 euros, the number of buyers who can choose from a wide range of colours is likely to remain rather small.
