Hey guys,

Thanks for all the comments and thanks for keeping it somewhat civil.

Like I said before, I wear a helmet now and will continue to do so. It doesn't bother me like I thought it would, so why not?

My question was really just about how effective the current design is. It just seems to me that unless the impact comes from the top it wouldn't be that effective at actually protecting your skull. My temples and the base of my skull are pretty much exposed. Seems like if I crashed and my shoulder or back hit the ground first, my head would hit the ground at an angle where the bottom edge of the helmet would catch the ground first, and the helmet would just need to rotate a tiny bit for my skull to be susceptible to injury.
