What Helmet Does Cycle Team Cofidis Use?

David Douglas is asking about which helmet the Cofidis professional cycle team use, we have been doing a bit of spy work to find out, here is our answer

Question: Do Cofidis use Louis Garneau Titan Carbon Helmets?

Hi David,
The easy answer is NO, the team are sponsored by Mett helmets for 2007, now this does not mean that you have not seen one of there riders using one, the thing about professional racing teams are that some equipment you see riders use isn’t always what it seems.

When a rider has a saddle, handle bar or helmet that he prefers and insists on riding with, then if the rider is important enough, the team will make that bit of equipment look like the teams sponsor. Handlebars and saddles have to have the name taken off and disguised to look like a different make.

Helmets and shoes are normally the personal choice of the rider and they have a sponsorship deal with those providers, but in many cases the team will provide these items, but the big stars are paid separately to use certain helmets, shoes and glasses. So its possible you saw a rider using the Louis Garneau Titan Carbon helmet, but they Official helmet sponsor is Mett, if you go to there web site you will find all there sponsors.
