From Backcountry.com:
"The Petzl Elios Helmet provides an excellent combination of lightweight and durability for all types of climbing. The polycarbonate shell and impact-absorbing form liner make this a great choice when you need a helmet that lasts but don't want to feel like you strapped a brick to your head. This well-ventilated helmet has clips for a headlamp and can be used for everything from sport to alpine climbing. Adjust the Elios to fit over a stocking hat with a single wheel in the back."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Blending the best of durability and weight, the Petzl Elios Climbing Helmet is excellent for multipurpose mountain endeavors. The polycarbonate shell and impact-absorbing closed cell foam liner is long lasting, lightweight, and doesn't feel like a milk bucket after 17hrs on route. Highly aerated with ten vents, a single wheel-ratchet at the back allows for easy adjustment along with a quick tab buckle chinstrap. Four headlamp clips help keep your mountain perspective when your watch runs on to 28hrs after a descending miscue. Whether climbing rock, ice, or mixed alpine terrain the Elios is the quintessential noggin protector."

From RockCreek:
"The Petzl Elios Helmet for 2007 is a new and improved version with sleeker looks, more colors, but still as light as ever! Anyone who climbs, should have a helmet. More than most sports, climbing has many variables that put your head in danger - rock falling from above, bad whippers that flip you upside down, and even belaying under roofs or on multi pitch routes. If you do not have a helmet or don't wear one because they are too cumbersome or heavy, well your excuses are over.The Elios Helmet is about .8 lbs - which is super lightweight, and Petzl added ten ventilation holes to keep you cool and comfy. Durable for all sorts of impacts, with an expanded polypropylene foam liner for great shock absorption, and an injection molded polycarbonate shell for wear and tear. Just 1 single adjustment gets the helmet tight and the chin strap position can slide forward or backward for accurate fitting.No more one size fits all helmets that leaves empty space and a wobbly feel, now there are two sizes (#1-#2) in order to precisely fit your head and keep you ultra safe."
