    Helmet For Class 3 E-Bike

    I'm considering the Bexley. Ventilation is my biggest concern. You say that it's surprisingly well ventilated. Would you mind expanding on that? I live near San Diego. It's summer half the year and it's definitely getting warmer. The last few years summer temps have been hitting the 90's...

    Hi, I commute to work several days a week on my class 3 e-bike. It's pretty easy to maintain 20+ mph on my route, and there are few spots where I exceed 30 mph. I've been using my Giro road helmet, but I think I need to invest in one that's designed for higher speeds. I'm aware of the Dutch...
