Bean 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2014 I got a puncture on the second day of riding to work, so popped into the local LBS to get a tube and look at new helmets.My old Specialized helmet I loved, but after 14 years I lost the visor, padding was disintegrating, and the plastic shell just started to fracture. They sold me a nice display model Specialized S3 in matt black. Wow - has the fitment systems in the good mid line helmets ever gotten nice. Really like the new helmet, and while I would have preferred something brighter for visibility, I can likely just add some refectivity tape to it.Rabin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's a cyclist and is the one that sort of steered me into cycling back when I had to stop running (due to injuries). But seeing me now with three bikes, talking bike lingo, etc, he's a bit worried! HahaI will say that one thing I like about collecting and working on pedal bikes versus motor bikes is that it is much less expensive. And it takes up less space Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
