    To be fair my bike was next to it so they probably thought the same about my wheels...

    wow i vaguely glanced over this thread and was overwhelmed by the amount of chatter!
    surely it makes sense to wear a helmet to not get brain damage or whatever happens when a car hits you at a high enough speed.
    ok now that I've put my oar in i will never post in this thread again and also will be riding my bike... instead of talking a lot about helmets and HSE stuff....

    P.S. safety is easy... use you common sense... and if you aint got any.... your're screwed and probably shouldn't ride a bike in the vicinity of cars, lampposts, ramps... or anything that you might hit, or fall off of, or get hit by

    restrap are tried and tested as awesome.
    ive used them everyday on multiple bikes for 3 years.
    theyre amazing.
    been riding the same pair for a year and a half.

    So then after a year and a half, are they still relatively stiff or are they pants and droop, making it a struggle to get back into quickly when setting off the lights... (If you stop for the lights)

    I really like the look of the bigxtop ones but if no one says anything about there durability and ability to keep shape I would rather the more functional pair...

    so what im getting from this thread is

    restrap vs Ynot vs bigxtop...

    zantrak are gross. (my opinion, not taken from the tread)

    so which is better?
    in terms of strength?
    and rgidity? (I freaking hate when my straps go all droopy)

    i like the look of the bigxtops because of the metal clasp on the ouside of strap but is it just in the way?
