Just gone through a shop here who sells eye glasses and sport apparels for bicycles and found out that they also sells spyder helmets. They are official distributor of spyder products. I saw this "sphinx" design helmet worth 3,000 pesos and it does look good.

Any feedbacks about spyder helmets? Or should i buy Zeus helmet instead of spyder? any suggestions?

no photos?, difficult to compare, walang image eh. anyway choose the approved ones. before buying, look for the regulation safety marks- like DOT, SNELL, etc, mas safe ka doon.

check out the Sponsors Forum...may dedicated section for Spyder products dun...may mga pics din ng other models and design ng spyder helmets.

as far as quality, looks and prices...di nagkakalayo ang zeus and spyder...i've owned several Zeus helmets before...and is now using a Spyder Rebel Helmet for everyday riding....

but this helmet is ECE 22.05 rated. Is DOT approval better than ECE (Europe)?

ECE 22.05 and SNELL is almost equal it is better than DOT of USA, mas mahigpit ang europe sa certification ng helmet, try to search sa wikipedia.

salamat sir. so maganda din pala ang spyder helmet. Pero may naririnig nga lang akong feedbacks na parang design lang yung mga air vents ng spyder helmet at hindi sya functional as vents??
