Eh.. I would trust CPSC, SNELL, or the European helmet certification org before the UCI.
I would be really curious if it would pass any of the tougher certifications.
I find it pretty interesting pro racers seem much more willing to go along with things and just trust an aggressive manufacturer than other groups in similar risk situations like motorsports athletes.
I can't find any info on whether any of the long tail aero helmets are tested... the Virginia Tech site is pretty comprehensive and they don't seem to have tested any.
