Pret Helmets?

Anybody rocking a Pret helmet? They look like decent lids and I'm always down to support a lesser-known, up and coming company.

I'm thinking the Effect or Cynic could be a good look. Typically go beanie and goggles under.

Any thoughts/feedback would be appreciated.

Met these guys at SIA, dealt with them a ton since. Totally legit and very high quality.

Light beyond belief.

Stuff seems quality - glad to hear from someone that's checked them out in person. Any thoughts on the Effect vs. Cynic?

Picked up an Effect last season.  Awesome helmet.  Super light but can tell its sturdy as hell.  Don't know much about the Cynic - I'd go ahead and go with the top of the line (Effect).  Can't go wrong

It will still have to meet the same international standard as the bigger brands......
