Yeah, spend the $ for a good helmet.
@lovinthehd I think you would agree, but this is my philosophy on a bike (and other hobbies too):
Good gear just gets out of the way and lets you enjoy the ride. Whatever it is that you are constantly thinking about, that's the item you need to upgrade next! Remember I had never been really happy with my brakes on my Cannondale Cujo? Those recently got completely upgraded to 203/180 rotors and SLX brakes. Guess what, I never even think about my brakes any more!
Same in audio--good gear just does it's job and doesn't call attention to itself. But, when you need it to perform, it performs.
