Aldi had a veritable truckload of thinsulate headwarmers type things
last week, maybe check if there's some left in the bins?

Yes did mention that last week and they were good quality plus the
gloves were very suitable as well. (For anyone that did take notice.)

Netti do a nice under-helmet beanie made from Super Roubbaix lycra

It's elastic and very snug fitting. I find that when the temp rises above 5
degrees it's too warm, and it has kept me warm in temps down to -2 or -3
dergrees.

I assume their weight estimate is rounded up to the next 500 grams.
Not sure I would like it if it really weighed that much - would feel a
bit like Ollie Cromwell's roundheads.

For real lightweight headgear I use a 100% silk balaclava that I
purchased from the motorcycle shop (Elizabeth St, Sydney). Nice and warm
and takes up no room (almost). Like Peter's beanie, it was quite cheap
($13.95) a couple of years ago.

cheers,

Bellwether does one too - ask your LBS to order from Cassons:

it more than the Netti; thinner, so it's more comfortable and it's as warm.

Cheers,
