Fixie Helmets
In the interest of keeping my dome in one piece. What are some solid helmets for fixed gear riders?

Riding like its 1990
I took a fixie-piss this morning, put on my fixie boxers and went triple rush brakeless to eat my fixie-cereal. I live my life one fixie at a time.

I use a Macon with a brentwood liner but i just saw one of these....might be fun if the visibility isn't compromised
though I expect that this is popular with the safety minded bike walkers

I use a Giro Atmos which has a Ti finish, it's comfy and has plenty of vents. Kask helmets are very comfortable too.

All helmets do exactly the same thing, and the one that is right for you will be a matter of comfort, looks, and price. Go ****ing shop.

Apparently the word fixie isn't cool around these parts. To everyone mocking me, suck my fixie!
