phalse.

"buy something that fits" means that you're gonna want to spend more than $30 (at that price point they're all "universal" size, which doesn't barely fit anybody well).

i mean, i don't give a dern about features like the carbon endoskeleton that the atmos ($190ish) has, but features like a something that's not a piece-of-**** back-closure-that-will-break-after-a-few-months, well-ventilated headholes, non-arse padding, and different sizes are not just crap to give roadie mags something to write about.

i guess the difference between a $30 helmet and a $60 or $70 helmet is pretty significant. maybe the diff between a $70 and $120 helmet, not so significant.
