What kind of helmet should I get for my mountain bike?
I want to get a helmet for my bike, so I was wondering what I should get. I ride my Globe mountain bike down the channel to the ocean right now, but I want a cool helmet for when I ride in Yosemite in the summer. I was looking at a few of the Pro-Tec models, and I fancy the Cyphon and B2 model looks, if it helps. Thanks for reading!
Just an aside, what is considered a lot for a bicycle helmet?
Just make sure the color matches your bike. Haha just kidding.
Looks don’t matter. Fit matters. All helmets are pretty much the same in terms of protection… IF they fit you properly. Go into your local bike shop and try on a few. There are so many, you’re sure to find one that fits and looks cool.
I have a fox transition it fits well light weight and well ventilated I payed about 50$
I personally have used several helmets and the Giro Transfer is a great bike helmet for an outrageously low price. Look into The Giro Transfer. I bought it for $35 US but it is $17 US on the Nashbar website.
The helmet that is comfortable is the “best” helmet and the one you will wear more often. Go to your LBS and see what fits best. Bell is a good starting point, as they have been making helmets for a very long time and still make some of the best motorcycle helmets, but fit and price should be more important.
