Safety Gear

fakenger35 I've always had cheap and cheerful helmets. Has anyone tried the really pricey lids? Specialized do some for over £100. Are these notably lighter, more comfortable than the cheaper ones?

Usually due to the number of vents and lightness of it really. The most I pay for a lid is around 60 quid.

I almost always ride with a Giro Xen on - mtbing one but better than nothing. Most people don't seem to wear them on fixed bikes.

I've split a fair few of them now off road and would not want to try it on road.
