I hang my head in shame (my helmet-less head)!

OK, I have been riding now for 6 years and always scoffed at the idea of wearing a helmet until I found this site.

I am slowly coming around to the idea that I definitely should buy one.

Need some advice please.

  • I ride a MTB
  • Have short spikey hair
  • Live in the UK where the weather is variable but never severe
  • Don't want to look totally naff (translation = stupid)!
  • Don't want a colour that will clash with my lovely Orange bike


Is around $70 an average price, I really have no idea.

Yes, I can search the internet but you guys seem to have so much experience, I feel I can trust your views more than a shop.

Any advice gratefully received......

Sally
