NYC Helmet, I’m Giddy With Excitement
- blasdel 17y agoIt's a lame skate helmet with a hat on top. http://bikesnobnyc.blogspot.com/2009/08/slow-and-steady-tortoise-and-helmet.html http://bikesnobnyc.blogspot.com/2009/08/slow-and-steady-tort...
- noss 17y agoAm I alone being very comfortable wearing screaming red colors when i bike through traffic to get to work? Camouflage green and grey do not seem like strikingly good color choices. They wont even go well with the crimson red blood splat you'll leave under the truck that turned right and didnt notice you.
- imd 17y agoAccording to http://www.bhsi.org/guide.htm http://www.bhsi.org/guide.htm : "Most bike helmets are made of EPS foam with a thin plastic shell. The shell helps the helmet skid easily on rough pavement to avoid jerking your neck.... Beware of gimmicks. You want a smoothly rounded outer shell, with no sharp ribs or snag points." I don't think a hat over a helmet is going to skid as easily as slick plastic. Also, "Dark helmets are hard for motorists to see," and this helmet looks like it only comes in black.
