Safest Brand of Helmet
#42
RE: Safest Brand of Helmet
I'm riding with a SHARK RSX Intense
http://www.cyclegear.com/lpgm.cfm?L1...=TUC_74-9050_G
It's pretty light and the liner is super comfortable... I've been riding it in the SoCal heat and my head's been pretty dry (compared to my back from my jacket, which is a different story...). I also think that it's rather quiet from what others have said, I haven't ridden with other helmets so I have no real basis for comparison. I do like the fact that it doesn't have a huge spoiler or anything that causes unecessary drag with the vents closed.
I really wish my head fit the Scorpion Exo-700 Scorpion -- That is a sick looking helmet:

In real life, the scorpion is this deep metallic green that changes color depending on angle... it's a great looking helmet, especially for the price.
As far as safety goes, I'm pretty sure that it depends for purpose and a list of several factors that everyone has an opion on. My feeling is that if you have something comfortable on, then you won't be as distracted by the helmet making your chances of falling a whole lot less.
