Catlike Whisper Bike Helmet? Euskaltel-Euskadi

Ken Neuschwanger has been watching some road racing and has taken a fancy to the helmet used by the Euskaltel team, but he doesn’t know who manufactured it and which model it could be. We get our detective hat on and do some investigation work

Question: Helmet worn by team Euskatel-Euskadi. It looks like honeycomb. I want one and am having trouble finding the brand and p/n. Please help.

Hi Ken,
The helmet that you have seen on the heads of the Euskaltel-Euskadi team riders is the Catlike Whisper. The Whisper comes in thirteen different color styles with three MTB versions with detachable visors. The honeycomb design that caught your eye is a 39 hole air intake system for great ventilation and a dual cooling technology.

On the safety front it has CES technology which is crash energy splitter and has adjustable rear retention and a inner pin rear retention receiver, the Whisper meets the European safety standard EN 1078, depending on where you live you have to check out if this meets your countries requirements. In America the Whisper does not meet CPSC standards, but U.S. Cycling has added the European helmet standard to its approved list.

Its very light at 230g for the S/M size version and super compact design. There are plain and multi colors available as well as the special designs, the Euskaltel, Valencia and a World Champions version.

The Catlike Whisper has a very nice fit and is cool, in its looks and with all those ventilation holes all round the top and back. Nice choice, Ken, your only problem might be finding a shop that stocks them if you live in the U.S. Good luck.
