helmet

Hi, Being new to cycling looking for a decent lid. I currently have a hybrid, running roads/mild trails but will probably add a road bike soon. Want a decent lid, but obviously as with all things cycling price can vary dramatically. Beyond a point, I am note sure more money = more protection...

Today was the first time I went on a long bike ride wearing my new helmet after wearing it for about an hour it hurts my head in both sides towards the back of the head. I tried loosening it and repositioning it a bit forward and then back. But it persisted hurting my head. Why is this...

I've ordered the helmet in the title but it was kind of an impulse buy as I'd scoured the Internet for 2 hours and every helmet I wanted were out of stock so just seen it and ordered it. It did have one 1 lined 5 star review though. I am now having second thoughts. I cannot find any reviews any...

Ok, full disclosure - I'm pretty sure it does! Can anyone point me to a resource for evidence?

I saw a lad while out walking today today he’ s as old as I am , late 60’s, so we’re chatting away about bikes and all else , for some reason he asked me if I wore a helmet , most of the time I replied , I always do he said , but look at this , he Took his flat cap off , he Is as bald as , but...

Hi guys, I was just wondering if anyone has used one of these helmets and if so what they are like? I will be using it for commuting on a Brompton bike in London. https://www.evanscycles.com/abus-hyban-urban-helmet-EV323880 View...

Specialized Tactic II helmet. Mint condition, very little use, no marks or damage. £23 including postage.

Brand new mount and I’ve managed to break it tightening it up on my bike helmet . Fuming !! £20ish on eBay for a new one . Hope the super glue works :-(

Can anyone recommend a helmet make/model/style that doesn't make you look like a prat. I'm very vain.

This is not another "when should a helmet be replaced" thread.....PLEASE ^_^. Approx 5 years ago I looked in vain for replacement pads as IMO the helmet itself was fine. I ended up buying a new helmet. 5 years on and I am/was in the same situation ie helmet is IMO fine but the pads were falling...

Hi, Don't worry i don't intend on glueing my helmet back together, but more so of the soft foam lining that velcro,s inside it. I took mine out tonight to give it a quick rinse under the tap, only to find out the soft foam is coming unstuck from the velvet type material. The helmet is one of...

Anybody got any spares of these kicking around please? I`m happy to pay up to £10 for them, and whatever the postage costs. Been looking online for replacements and there`s no way I`m paying upwards of £17 for them with postage of £5-6 on top! I`d rather stick with my own disgusting and thin...

Inside the helmet there are controls mounted just inside the brim, power on, volume up and down, co-located with a microphone and a charging port. This charging port is one of my few (possibly only) dislikes about the helmet, as while it’s waterproof and pretty much idiot proof, it’s also unlike...

can anyone please recommend a decent camera for my helmet I’m on a tight budget anything between £20-£40 thanks :-)

Not worn a helmet since I swapped from road to MTB, but I now go out with my 7YO grandson who is made to wear one by his mother/father, my daughter/SIL, that is their choice & I was not going to argue with them. However it did cause a couple of questions from the grandson & the pressure...

Does anybody have any experience of this please? I am led to believe that if I trade in my old Specialized lid, I can get a like for like replacement with 40% off? Old one is c. 5 years old and although not been crashed or had any notable impacts, seems about right to change for a newer (newer...

Hi again. About a month ago I considered buying the above Helmet and asked what you thought about it. I got a mixed reception on it, and my curiosity finally got the better of me and took the plunge and bought one. They usually retail around the 100 pounds mark, but Halfords were doing a...

Hi guys, I have a sixsixone Recon helmet and I don’t know where to attach my GoPro mount in a solid, decent position. I have been considering the side but I want it to be central on the top of the helmet so I was wondering if I can file down a section on top of the helmet to allow a mount to be...

After being deliberately driven at on my commute yesterday I am thinking of buying a helmet Camera. Can someone please recommend one? GoPro are well outside my budget. I'm looking for something with adequate definition to identify a number plate if necessary and with a battery life longer than...

Hi again. I had a promotional email from Halfords the other day stating they will give you 20% off a new helmet if you trade your old one in.I think they were also doing other similar deals to but i didn't really look at them So when i saw this 20% promotion on a new helmet my curiosity and...

If anyone has anytime, i am doing some research for a study about when people wear a helmet. https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/TXQXCFS

Wearing a helmet, yes or no")

How long does it take to get a post printed? Some seem to get through immediately, while others can wait more than 10 hours. Is the poster informed of non acceptance and the reason.

I think this may have been mentioned on here previously but does anyone think it will lead to more people wearing a lid, being any more convenient or indeed to a reduction in injuries? https://amp.businessinsider.com/spacex-engineers-bike-helmet-reduce-fatal-crashes-2018-10

Have an old helmet from days of riding with my kids. Recently noticed the felt cover on the pads inside have come off, so I'll sometimes have nice big black marks on my forehead where the internal padding has rubbed off. These look like they're just velcroed on - the helmet has little dots with...

I've just been in a discussion about Helmets with a downhill enthusiast in Germany who claimed that "All cycle helmets in Europe are now built to the same standard as motorcycle helmets". I'm not sure how that can be the case except possibly with the more high end downhill helmets. Does anyone...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-45312756 Maybe best not to start another debate about the subject, but it would be interesting to discuss how such a celebrity may feel that due to status, feels able to make announcements about what should be made compulsory. He says he’s never cycled in London...

...since the last one? https://cyclevision.com.au A helmet with embedded cameras: are you worried helmets offer too much protection? Easily fixed by adding adding hard plastic and glass and metals in the middle of your forehead and near the base of your skull. Can't see how that could go wrong.
