Best helmet value I am aware of is the Typhoon, available from Amazon. $119. These are nice helmets.

Never heard of that mfg, does not mean it's not good though. Mine is a Bell Vortex. $180 helmet for $100.

The Bell Vortex is a good close-out buy at $100.
It is, however, a 2010 Snell helmet that will be out of date in 2 years.
The Typhoon is a very nice helmet (I have two of them), and is a 2015 Snell, good for another 7 years.
5 more years for $20.
Youse pays yer money and youse takes yer choice......

The $100 Bell Vortez CLOSE OUT deal at revzilla is a 2010 Snell.
Youse pays yer money and youse takes yer choice.......
(and I expect that GW would actually outlast a 2010 Snell helmet.....)
