There are two AWESOME helmet brands left-

Arai and Shoei. Both are handmade in Japan.

There are some euro brands that try, but no one comes close IMO.

The issue is going to be the build date- You should replace your helmet every 10 years- but, if well taken care of, I think I would rather have a aged Arai or Shoei vs. a new HJC.

That helmet was close to $1000 new.

That’s why I told her she shouldn’t buy them. You don’t know if they’ve been in a crash (even tho no visible damage). If I road bikes, I wouldn’t buy a second hand helmet
