Yes you could be right after I looked again.. £160 is more than I wanted to pay..
Cheers
If you try Google then the shopping tab it brings up dealers selling last year or older models of the prevail, dependent on size you can find one from £60.00.
Good luck

Just a quick update..
Went down to a couple of bike shops with mixed results..
Prevail was very good but lack of comfort pads or comfort pads not big enough has put me off, plus over here they wanted €235 which is rather stupid.. but a nice helmet.
I tried several others on but none I really liked except the Savant, that was the best I tried on but will have to look at getting extra padding if poss.
They had the Propero 11 but not in my size so cant tell really on that one, and I didn't see any S3's. None had any Kask's its seem they dont do them over here?
I might go and have another look today if work allows..

Update..
Bell Gage was very good as was the Mavic Syncro.. tried on the Propero 11 as well but need another look to see if you can improve the comfort pads, again a very good helmet.
First choice would be the Specialized S Works Evade ... stunning but can't see me spending £160 on a helmet, SHMBO might have a few words in my left ear if I did..
Savant was up there but didn't seem the same spec as the others..

Surprized you haven't mentioned Spiuk - it is a Spanish brand. After trying all the usual brands Spiuk was the one that fitted like a glove (or a hat, in fact 
)

The evade is a great helmet, I have one.. You will not regret buying one.

After a crash which split my Bell right through in three places, I bought a Limar 777. It fits well, is very, very light and has a decent bug mesh, as I don't want any more wasps crawling through my hair whilst riding!

My current road lid is a Casco Warp Sprint. It's mostly Carbon fiber, so although not cheap, it is very strong / rigid, and incredibly light. It comes with a detatchable visor, which is brilliant in the winter, because it doesn't fog up, like glasses / goggles can do. It looks good as well, which is a bonus.
