My Troxel Dakota is a considerable improvement on the usual helmets. It is
well ventilated and has a fitting mechanism that stops them from wobbling
around on your head. I like it MUCH better than my old Lidlocker. Not
cheap though.....the online site that has the shades sells it for about $70.
I don't think I paid quite that much.
That doesn't really sound that expensive to me Gail for a good quality
helmet. I remember the first time I bought a helmet for myself for a
snowmobile. I was trying on all different kinds of them with prices from
$30 - $300 or so. (this was a long time ago) Anyway I finally asked the
guy selling them what the differences were in all of them & how good of one
I really needed.
His answer has stuck with me for over 30 years now. He said:
"Well that depends on how much your head is worth to you." He continued
with "If you have a $30 head buy a $30 helmet, If you have a $300 head you
better get a good one."
So that has been the criteria for buying helmets ever since for me. It
just depends on the value you place on your head
