Not the best.

By Matt Salladay Ranked #446 - Helmets December 29, 2010

After trying on a lot of different helmets this is the only one that fit me well. I have a weird shaped head so these things take time for me. Also it was the only one that worked well so i'm kinda stuck with it.

Pros:

*Keeps my head warm without being to warm. Also the ear pads are removable which means that spring riding i can pull them out and stay cool.
*cheep

This is about where the good stops.

Cons:

*Google clip in the back will either break or fall out after the first good thrash you take. Without this piece your goggles will not stay on yoru helmet. I now wear my googles under my helmet :(
*Remember those removable earpads? Well they always fall out when i take the helmet off. And because they are nice to have out in the spring I haven't gorilla glued them back in.
*The entire Styrofoam protection disconnected from the hard plastic shell. This was and easy fix with some gorilla glue but until the fix it would rattle at high speeds (incredibly annoying)

So yeah. Look around and get something else... unless your stuck with this beater.
