100% Altis gravel helmet – MTB levels of protection for drop bar riders

Side on shot of the helmet.

With the crossover between mountain biking and gravel riding kit sometimes blurred, it’s no surprise that the 100% Altis mountain bike helmet gets a gravel model. 100% is a cool brand and an early adopters of the whole oversize riding glasses frame thing,  so this model appeals to me as a mountain biker who also rides gravel.

The Altis Gravel sits at a very attractive price point of  $115 / £89.99 / €106, so if you’re in the market for a dedicated gravel bike helmet this may well appeal. But is this helmet anything other than a peak-less version of its mountain bike helmet, and if so how does it transition to use with gravel riding?
