What is the most comfortable bike helmet?

Question

for the past couple of days i have been riding my bike and have been wearing a hat instead of a helmet. i now want to buy one but am not sure which one will be the most comfortable one to wear, not to mention not look weird. im a teenager without much money so nothing too expensive
thanks for any good advice!

Answer 1

I agree with the last answer. However, weight can affect long distance comfort. My pick is the Giro Pneumo or Atmos helmets. These have been the lightest feeling helmets that I've evr worn and they are the closest feeling to not wearing any helmet- yet they are still among the best in terms of safety. Heck, I just found out yesterday that Lance wore the Atmos when he was riding for the Discovery Team. Don't let that be your reason for purchase. The Pneumo is just as good and about $50-$60 less.

Answer 2

The thing about confortable, is that it needs to fit you. You might find a better fit on cheaper ones, depends on the shape of your head.

You shouldn't wear anything between your head and the helmet, it isn't that safe.

Go to some shops and look at what they have.

Try to find one with lots of vents and adjustable sizing. Giro and Bell make good ones throughout their models.
