Specialized ambassador and independent cycling apparel brand Romance has teamed up with acclaimed urban artist D*Face for the project that will see five exclusive helmets sold to raise funds for the Trussel Trust, Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust, Headway, Centre Point and Access Sport.

One Romance X D*Face helmet will be released for sale each day between August 10 and 15, with the first live at 18:00BST at rmnc.cc, and if previous Romance collaborations are anything to go by, you'll need to be quick and have deep pockets.
