Cheaper than a funeral

Probably saved my life and definitely saved me from a concussion. I was riding a mountain trail down a hill (too fast, around 25-30mph according to my Strava app) and stumbled into an area that threw me over the handlebars. I rolled once, rolled over again and stopped. I remember my head hitting and bouncing off the rocky road and I thought I'm glad I'm wearing this helmet. I recommend this helmet. I know it works from personal (head) experience. I'll have to get a new one as it was badly damaged but it was worth the money. I'm sure my funeral would have cost more. I have a lot of rashes, bruises and torn ligaments on my shoulder but my head is fine apart from the fact that I can't wait to heal enough to start riding again but I don't think the helmets are to blame.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • weak
