I'm not a fan of TLD helmets, I've seen a 2 of my friends that literally started falling apart the helmet lining wouldn't stay the front nose piece as well..

Ironically, the chinese helmet I bought on ebay for 40 bucks for utility riding is holding up just as well if not better than my HJC. $120. :confused: HJC is way more comfortable though. Oh and can handle a bigger collision. :thumbs:

i really like my tld helmet, its real comfortable and light, i think they changed the material they use for the helmets so maybe it won't fall apart, at least i hope :lol:
