Crafted in Italy's famous Pininfarina wind tunnel with the aid of aerodynamics guru John Cobb, the Boost 01 is Rudy Project's first-ever road aero helmet. Incorporating many advances in fluid dynamics which has made Rudy Project a staple in the Aero / TT helmet world, the Boost 01 is a technological marvel. Featuring 10 vents to assure superior ventilation and a forward placed aerodynamic pressure zone to reduce neck torque, riders can go further, harder and in more intense heat while maintaining superior drag reduction.
The latest road aero technology gives the Boost 01 more than a 12% aero drag reduction compared to a traditional road helmet, along with a 65% reduction in neck torque by relocating the center of pressure. This helmet also comes standard with a removable optical shield that connects with a magnetic flip-up system. This allows the athlete to put the helmet on with ease, while cutting fog and maximizing cooling during long rides. Building on Rudy Project RP-Optics advanced polycarbonate technology, the visor also features cutting-edge coatings for superior optical protection against harmful UV rays, eliminating annoying glare and eye fatigue.
The new Boost 01 is a true aerodynamic beauty, boasting a powerful and function design, perfect for cyclists and triathletes alike. Old and new technologies combine to create an exceptional and functional dynamic sculpture, unmistakably Rudy Project.

Our remarkable ability to remember quotes from practically any movie, and our skill in catering to almost any person in South Africa.
The latter is the harder of the two, because A) we haven't met everyone in the R of SA and 2) our personal tastes can hardly be used as a benchmark for things other people may enjoy.
Still, through sheer determination and never-miss-an-episode viewings of Egoli and Generations, we like to think we hit the proverbial nail on the head more often than not.
And in the almost unfathomable event that we're completely wrong and nothing on our cyber-shelves appeals to you, we'd like to leave you with the following gem from Lord of the Rings:
