[QUOTE="tx246, post: 285167, member: 23127"] [b]i agree with u[/b] cujet, you are right about helmet outer layer and puncture type injuries. the two piece mold in plastic is not as safe as some of the other materials in that regard. i fear that most people who do buy 400dollar helmets use em way past their ability to protect due to previous impacts. all it takes is one tip over to destroy the integrity of the styro liner. i myself dont care for the plastic shell but on the other side some of those are lighter and are probably better in preventing neck injury. i just think the mid priced helmets are the best value for me as far as protection. i can replace my helmet twice for the cost of a highend helmet. there are some great fiberglass shell helmets in the under 200 range. i guess what i really want to stress is check the [B]inside[/B] of your helmet often and replace it when it needs it. and price is more a reflection of dodads and appearance and not just safety level.
