Helmet


I switched from a standard bicycle helmet to those skate style that are very popular with the new urban cyclists. I bought a Pryme 8, which was really well priced at MEC. I've been using it for eight months now and have noticed a few things compared to the standard helmet.
1. It allows way more air to pass over my noggen' (This is really good).
2. The hard outer case is strong... important if you're always dropping it while trying to undo your lock.
3. Heavy-ish. I find it to be just fine (~500g), but others might not like it.
4. Great straps, though it took me a while to adjust them the way I like.
