Julian347:
Last weekends sad news has prompted many of us to start looking getting a helmet. I'm already sorted with a full face, but what about open face or the park/skate style helmets? There are loads about and they probably all meet the required standards but which ones do those that already have them recommend?

Gnarlyscoots:
I highly recommend a Bell Faction, or Bell Segment helmet  :daumenhoch:

Good thread Julian  :daumenhoch:

I have already purchased mine for the rides ..  I don't care how daft or stupid i look. Orders off my missus.  "bump" No helmet, no ride.

The ones i were looking at ranged for £20 -£50

I went for this bern after 1 1/2 hours reading reviews last night . I quite liked the peak too .  :daumenhoch:

You won't go wrong with anything from Pro-tec, TSG, Bell or King Kong, I use King Kongs, V3's I think they are  :daumenhoch:

dp and chopper dude:
After seeing this post I popped out on my bike on my dinner and picked one of these Mongoose helmets up. £20 from Halfords:



There are probably cheaper & better helmets out there but I wanted one today. It fits a treat. Other helmets I've tried dig in round the side. I must have a funny shaped head!
It feels really sturdy. Better than others I've tried. I've got somewhere to put my ride stickers now too.

Here is the link if anyone wants a look:

They do them in white too.
