Default Re: How long does a helmet last?

I usually buy a new lid every year. Most of it for teh BNG, but my helmets spend alot of time in the wind and sun. UV will break down the integrity of the shell. 5 years is the claimed safe life of a helmet. If you keep it in a closet all the time, it will last longer than if its on your head in the wind.
