Melted and Deformed - Helmets and Accessories

I expected more from a $25 name brand bike helmet. Left in the sun for less than 30 minutes while going in. The plastic on top melted, warped, and came loose. I ordered a replacement because it was a really good helmet before. I like the space for my ponytail and its lightness. I hope the replacement doesn't do the same while I commute to and from work.

Pros
  • SIZE - Recommended for ages 14+ but fits most 52.58cm heads Important: Always measure your head. The size and shape of the head can vary even within the age range. Using the wrong helmet can be dangerous.
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Sun Shattered Helmet

This helmet was great. So light and comfortable. You could hardly tell I was wearing it. BUT, it was left in the sun for about 30 minutes after my ride while I put the bike away, the kids settled down etc and the top plastic warped. I really expected more from this brand. I saw another review where this happened and thought it was coincidence. But maybe that's the problem of this brand. Too bad because this helmet was great!

Pros
  • DESIGN - Specially designed for women on the move.
Cons
  • There are cons

Works great that weird thing if you don't want edges!

This worked exactly as expected; My wife wears it comfortably in a ponytail or bun and it fits great. The only downside is that we looked at the extra piece and wondered what the heck it was for. It turns out if you want to take the brim off you can put it on so you still have some padding. All in all, this is great for a helmet for someone with a ponytail.

Pros
  • FIT SYSTEM is a ponytail and bun compatible system that ensures a comfortable fit every time.
Cons
  • No

Works with ponytail!

Before I bought this helmet, I tried to wear my husband's helmet and it was too uncomfortable because my thick hair covered my neck. I refused to wear it. I stumbled across this Bell helmet and read the reviews that it had room for a ponytail and decided it was worth a try. I am very happy with this helmet! It keeps my hair off the back of my neck. I usually wear my hair higher but it's way better than before. I can't comment on the warping issue that others have had. I leave the helmet inโ€ฆ

Pros
  • AIRFLOW - 13 vents for directional airflow.
Cons
  • unreliable

Ponytail Friendly - Helmets & Accessories

Fits well on my medium sized head and thick hair. I have arthritis in my neck so this helmet is a relief: feels light, doesn't look so bulky! Its detachable visor is fine (which was one of the reasons I bought it), although the ends are flimsy. After only half a year of driving and only one hand wash, the fasteners came loose and it kept falling off, so I used duct tape. I also want the visor to be longer for more shadow. I have to pull it over my eyes when driving in the California sun. Butโ€ฆ

Pros
  • COMPLIANCE - Meets CPSC US safety standard for bicycle helmets for ages 5 and up.
Cons
  • Easy care
