Saved My Skull on a Crash going at 30MPH
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs large
I was attacked by a GS going around 30MPG. The dog missed my leg and got my back wheel spokes. I went down hard and broke my his helmet but I did not blackout. I remembered what happened and limped to the side of the road. I am buying a replacement today and I will be using this brand and model for the rest of my cycling life.
Here is a YouTube video of two riders that the dog missed minutes before it got me - forward to 4:40 to see the dog attacking them.

Got this helmet for my mom. She doesn't have any complaints and says it fits great.

Don't pass because of lower price

I bought this to replace a Scott Vanish Evo which saved my head in a severe impact with the road. For $130 (less on sale), this is a pretty nice helmet. It's got MIPS, is pretty lightweight, and nice looking. Breathes as well as any other more expensive helmet I've had.
Couple of strikes. It doesn't work so well with sliding your glasses into the vents. Also, for cold weather riders the strap is not long enough so that when you have on skull cap and have to adjust the buckle, it's right near the edge, and it's come off a few times. That's bad planning. I don't have a huge head.

Good Helmet

I bought this helmet for my girlfriend who is starting on cycling. It looks really nice, however IMO, it doesn't have that aerodynamic look and feel as a Bell or Louis Garneau helmet. But probably this is just because she likes the black one, and it makes it look like "simple".
Anyways, she really loves it (she actually chose it) and if you like those simple designs this is a great choice. It comes with some stickers that are reflective (pretty cool).
