Tru facts, but only through UV exposure. So as long as it has been stored inside, you'll likely do more damage dropping it, chucking it in a bag in the 3 years left of it's 'official' lifetime than the environment.
This study says you'll be fine: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26902784I have found Scott and Lazer have been good for my large, longish head.

Ah cheers, makes sense.
Lazer Z1 sounds good but looks v similar profile/looks to the Synthe. Probably a marmite choice but I quite like the look of Oakley ARO5 which is supposedly has a narrow profile. Also down to £80 atm in Wiggle.
Anyone have experience on the Oakley? Creeping around on @ekudduke 's insta feed I think he has one?
Any new helmet recommendations for long heads? My Synthe is pretty comfortable but is very mushroomy on my narrow face. I measure up 60cm which puts me safely in L for most brands.
Also, any concerns buying a new 2018 helmet? Someone in Condor was telling me helmets have a shelf life regardless of use due to the deterioration of the foam over time. True facts or sales bollocks?
