Interesting that some now think that the SNELL standard helmet might be too hard and increase the incidence of traumatic head injury.

good reading...thanks...

My favorite Shoei in now at that 5 year threshold and has been used plenty...and I've been somewhat looking around. I guess I'll be making sure whatever I get has the European standard.

I've been following the UK's SHARP program for a while. Some good info to be had.
