I've had the Smith Allure for close to 2 years now and it's time for a change now. Summer sales are hot and I need a new helmet. Thinking either the Maze or the Receptor Bug

+1 for these two. I've had both and you can't really go wrong with either.

Personally i love my smith maze, really light yet still has great protection and works well with goggles under or over for whatever your into.

The helmet that best fits your head. Not sure about everyone else but I find that at least 60-70% of helmets I try in the proper size don't always feel the greatest on my head, pressure points are a headache in both aspects and suck even more when you take a heavy hit.

honestly I would recommend you go to a shop and try on a bunch of different helmets before you order online because you never know what might fit you the best and the best fit means the safest helmet. (would recommend the best fitting helmet that comes with MIPS)

I love my Maze, but with any helmet make sure it fits your head. There are so many that look dope but it's a matter of what is comfortable
