what do you think of this (helmet)

this helmet

cheap enough; for use in car only.

added: it is really to keep my ears/head warm; I have full face FM helmet for protection.

i'm not keen on wearing a helmet at the best of times, but if you're going to wear one, it might as well be full face.

what about when that bee/twig/stone hits you in the mouth?

the dentist's bill alone makes it worth getting a full face one.

I'll just point out that £15 for the item, and £20 postage is taking the p**s, if it doesn't turn up in the post, you can only claim the purchase price back, not the postage.

Rather than the top half of a helmet like that, or the back half of a helmet like an open faced bike helmet, What I want is the front half of a helmet, a bit like a fencing mask or paintball mask only not as stupid looking. Stones and bees are likely to hit your face more than your skull.

£20 postage is taking the p**s

It's coming from Hong Kong so it will cost something like that. The negatives say that the goggles are like toys.
For a face shield only

Make sure the clamp is tight though

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
