Purchased At:
REI
Strengths:
Price and availability
Weaknesses:
None really for the price
Similar Products Used:
Aquilla Pro, Mojave, and Torrent
Bottom Line:
Comfy fit. The half-nelson is kind of hokey since its really just an extension of the padding in the form a roc-lok. Works okay though since the fabric gives a little allowing you to cinch around your crown tighter. Just as safe for your noggin as a helmet costing 5 times as much.

Strengths:
Protects my head like any other helmet. It's cheap.
Weaknesses:
Pads are weak
Similar Products Used:
Bunch of target and Wal-Mart helmets. Same stuff.
Bike Setup:
DB Sorrento
Bottom Line:
Something inside digs into my head when i pull it tight and I spent an hour trying to figure out what it was with no success. It's probably an imperfection in my skull. It's just a damn helmet. If you don't like not having a visor, put a baseball cap over it.

Strengths:
-cheap -protects your head just as well as any other helmet -looks good -has enough vents (who really needs a gajillion vents anyways)
Weaknesses:
-cheap pads
Bottom Line:
Good cheap helmet. I see absolutely no reason to pay more for a helmet because they all have to pass the same goddamn test and so they're all just as safe. It protects my head and that's all I want. The front pad came apart so it's a 4.

Purchased At:
Dick's
Strengths:
Adequate fit Inexpensive Attractive, as far as helmets go
Weaknesses:
No neat looking mtb visor
Bottom Line:
If you don't have all that much money to spend, this is a great helmet. Granted, you dont' get any visor (that's an extra $10 on an otherwise identical helmet), but i decided that I could live with that. It's got a good fit, it's lightweight, and it's cheap.
