August 24, 2017: Get up to date on the latest LAZER products and innovations that will be on display at Eurobike.
After the launch of the successful LAZER Walter eye wear early this year, we are happy to launch the super-sized version of this stylish piece of eye protection. The Walter range combines comfort and performance in the well-known retro style. The overall dimensions increased by 10% with the width expanding to 135mm and height to 55mm. Despite this, the weight only increases by 2 grams over the ‘original’ Walter. The wide shield lens of Walter provides a great field of vision on the road ahead. The Walter range features interchangeable Zeiss lenses, except for the photochromic (Matte Titanium only). It comes with a protecting box, 3 lenses and a pouch. Walter Large: perfect for those prefer a larger fit. Same great style, same great colors, same great price!

LAZER Helmets is proud to present its new short tail time trial helmet, Victor. The Victor joins a long line of successful time trial helmets within LAZER’s line up. Victor has been designed with a short tail to suit the needs of the rider who may have a less stable position in the time trial discipline or for those courses that are challenging with changing winds or technical with few long straights. It is also ideal for those racing track especially in the team pursuit and sprint disciplines.
The Victor owes its versatility to its sleek design and short snubbed tail, which greatly reduces turbulence behind the athlete’s head creating a more aerodynamic condition. The optional long visor on the Victor has been extended downward to the cheekbone in order to create a smooth transition from helmet to face also reducing turbulence and drag. The visor is adjustable in incremental measurements made by pulling the visor forward away from the helmet in order to allow airflow in the helmet when needed.
The Victor has been in testing for several months in cooperation with riders from LottoNL-Jumbo both on the road in racing conditions along with in the Flanders Bike Valley wind tunnel, which LAZER is one of the founding partners of. Riders from the team report a large improvement in comfort and versatility in use.
LAZER welcomes to its eye wear line its first goggles, G1, for perfect for use with our Phoenix and Revolution helmets. The G1 goggle matches perfectly with the Revolution (FF) helmet in both styling and shape they are a perfect fit. The G1 provides you with the same level of comfort, safety and performance as the Revolution (FF). The G1 comes with an impressive list of features listed below.
- 3 color options- Matte Black, Matte Black/Flash Green, White/Matte Black
- MRSP: €160
- Availability early 2018
...In top sport, the differences are so small that every opportunity needs to be grabbed to become even better. And that’s the case with this Bullet.Andre Greipel
The newest offering enriches the quiver of helmets offered on the high end of LAZER’s range providing the competitive cyclist a technically advanced aerodynamic option for the road. The Bullet was designed with painstaking attention to detail in order to give the rider every aerodynamic advantage without sacrificing comfort or style. It eschews the typical venting for a sleeker design with unbroken surfaces creating the positives of less drag and more wattage gained.
LAZER rigorously tested the Bullet in the wind tunnel at Flanders Bike Valley in order to ensure the technically advanced design is correct. It has also been tested by our top athletes, including Andre Greipel , for their feedback under the true conditions a cyclist faces while riding. These tests have proven to be correct as the brand new helmet was able to capture the 1st and 2nd places on the final stage of the 2017 Tour de France in Paris on the Champs Elysées, with Dylan Groenenwegen winning over Andre Greipel.
- 315 grams in size small
- Wattage gains for the Bullet vs the Z1 have been measured at 7watts at 45kmph and up to 10 watts better in a sprint
- MSRP: €249.95 or €299.95 MIPS version
