Just got my new XP3.0 Lectric bike. So far so good except for the griping from my neighbors who wish they had my top speed of 30mph! I'm 74 so definitely plan to head over to bike shop and pick up new helmet ⛑ today. Have a nice day everyone.

Get one with a chin guard. You haven't lived until you've spent Thankgiving, Christmas, New Years' with your jaw wired shut. I use a Fox Rampage, a white & yellow one. https://www.competitivecyclist.com/search?q=fox rampage&s=u
In 67 years of cycling, I've never hit the top back front or sides of my head. I've hit my chin 6 times, needed stitches twice, screws in jaw once. Was going 25 mph downhill when front tire slid & I broke the jaw. Had long sleeve long pant mechanic's wear and $1 poly/cotton gloves, no skin burn occurred.
