Bern Watts Hard Hat w/Knit Liner - 2010 BCS

great looking helmet, like the hatstyle steez, Comfortable, low profile, fits properly and lightweight.

only been up to the mountain two times so far but the helmets been great. good snug fit. nice and warm. pretty light. goggles fit well on the helmet as well. no problems so far.

I switched to this helmet last year in attempt to save my skull for the inevitability of me falling on my face when I go riding, and this thing is great. It breathes well, looks nice (it has a brim, thats classy stuff!) and holds up to whatever I throw at it. I say, bring it on icy trails in need of grooming! I'm afraid but my helmet? is not ;)

After my friend got a concussion sans-helmet, I decided it was time to man up and get some skull protection. I really like the profile and matte finish, but I've already had to sew the fleece chin-strap guides back on. The biggest surprise has to be the warmth of the liner. I often have to take out the foam insert to open of the ventilation.

I have the baker hard hat, very similar to this model. Had the pleasure of suffering a concussion recently while wearing it. A helmet with suspension would no doubt offer more protection, however if I had not been wearing it I know I would have been in the hospital. Look at it this way, spending $50-100 on a helmet will most likely save you a few grand in hospital stays. Bottom line, buy it, wear it, ride another day. cheers

This helmet fits comfortably and does not make you look like a bobble head especially if you have a big dome. This will probably fit round melons better than oblong.
It's not a "certified" helmet but if a regular helmet doesn't fit you comfortably then this is better protection than a beanie.
On the downside, the felt on the helmet liner is not sturdy. The velcro attaching the winter liner can tear the felt off the inner liner on the helmet. This seems to be an ongoing issue for Bern since the same problem existed on my baker helmet. Otherwise a decent lid.
