What kind of bicycle helmet should I buy?
I’m not really sure how much money my dad wants to spend on one. Probably no more than $50, but I’m not sure.
I tried on an adult helmet that we already had, (I’m guessing a men’s one) but it was too big!
I think it’d be nice to get a helmet that has a little hole for a pony-tail, but it’s not the end of the world if it doesn’t have one.
I live in Omaha, NE, so we have quite a few bike shops, as well as a bunch of sporting goods stores.
I know we don’t want to buy one off the internet. Should I go to a bike or sporting goods store, or just go to target or wal-mart?
Is there really a big difference between $25 helmets and $50 helmets?
OH and if an adult helmet was too big, should I get a youth size? Or a women’s size? Or what?
I don’t want it to be super ugly either. I’m a 16 year old girl so if it looks really ugly I probably won’t have any motivation to wear it.
OH and I ride about 6 miles on a paved trail each time I ride, and I go about 4-5 days a week.
Any helmet you like and fits will work. They are all tested and approved meeting govt. standards. At 16 you will need an adult helmet. Some models offer universal fit, 1 size fits all. I don’t like those. Find a model you like with s,m,l sizing. An exact fit is achieved by using the extra pads that come with most helmets. You should be able to find quite a few under $50.
