Are Gatehouse helmets related to One K at all? Gatehouse Conquests look very similar to One K Defenders, & Gatehouse’s vented XC helmet looks a lot like One K’s vented XC helmet. Or did 1 just imitate the other? But even the harness shape & angle looks alike. Gatehouse looks more similar to One K than Samshield does, and One K & Samshield are made at the same factory.
I have this particular CO skull cap completely due to the fact that a friend who is a steeplechase jockey survived a horrendous fall with blows to his head because he wore this helmet.
It’s triple certified and I like the extra padding on the straps. Side benefit… it holds my Samsung Galaxy 7 in place while I ride so I can multitask. LOL. CO does a poor job of marketing this one in the US, but I have had it since Summer and love it. I use it for daily rides and it doesn’t hurt me like my other CO’s have.

Where did you buy yours? The APM II is a massive improvement from the original APM in terms of appearance and I’d guess airflow as well. Might be my next helmet.
You can buy it through Top Rail Tack or Bit of Britain. They have it or can order it. I got mine from an English Saddlery but it didn’t have the replacement coverage because I bought outside of the US. I also spent half as much money. I got it from Old Mill Saddlery and it came in I swear record time.
