im thinking about getting a new helmet. i want something light, warm, and comfortable. it also needs to be able to fit oakley a-frame and crowbar well. i would also like it to have the potential of having audio.
right now my top contenders are:
R.E.D. hi-fi
bern baker
k2 rant
giro bad leutenant
salomon partol

If you want the bad luitenant, I have one for sale.

I also have a G10MX possible for sale. Im not saure if that helmet will work with my new setup(tight pants)

Have you looked into a sweet protection helmet? they are the LIGHTEST, fit well, warm and the only helmet that is rated for multi-impact

Well... I think it's really comfortable... but then again, I have a big goddamn head. It feels well insulated and light, with no sharp objects stabbing into my head... generally the definition of a comfortable helmet.
