Torch helmet

Ooo, nice!
I'd prefer ventilation too, so you could wear the helmet during the day. I mean, I wouldn't want to bring an extra helmet everywhere I go in case I end up biking home in the dark unexpectedly.

I also prefer a little bit cheaper price tag on a helmet. I'm all for spending money to protect my head, but honestly I have never used a helmet. I've never had a crash that involved my head. (I've hardly had any crashes.) But I have to replace my helmet every 2-3 years, because I wear it all the time, maybe my sweat is toxic but the styrofoam does age a little quicker when you wear that thing so much. So I'm not super interested in paying more than $50 or so for a helmet every couple years.

(Disclaimer: I did pay more this year. I got the helmet hat. But next time I can replace just the helmet, and keep wearing the hat.)

I started out commuting with lights on my helmet, and quickly abandoned them due to the unwelcome fact that every bug within a mile seemed to be attracted to my face. It wasn't so bad when riding, but at stop lights.........horrid.
