I don't care about aero, I care about keeping the freezing Scottish rain and snow off my head in the winter. So far I seem to be limited to Lazer helmets, are there any other options. I want a vented helmet that can either be fitted with a cover or has sliding vent covers built in. Anyone know of any others?

The Catlike Mixino has an optional aero shell, my friend.

EDIT: I just went to the Catlike web-site and they have
rain shells for their Mixino, Whisper and Kompact'O
helmets. Possibly closer to what you are looking for
than the previously mentioned Mixino aero shell.

Brilliant, thanks very much I will have a look. I have a feeling they'll stop making them soon now the UCI have banned them.

My Giro came with a winter liner that replaces the small pads and mostly covers the front vents from inside the shell. It is kind of like half toque/beanie that attaches to the velcro. It is great in winter for keeping the cold off your head. (Vancouver winter commuting being the main use in my case)

Went to a shop to have a look, tried the Catlike Whisper and last years Team Lotto issue Lazer Helium. Both very nice but the Lazer won, especially at 56% off! Came in less than a discounted Whisper. Would have got the Whisper if that wasn't there, very nice helmet if a little H M Geiger... Got an Aero cover on order.
