    It complies with the Australian Standard AS 1698. If I get around to selling it I'll make sure to include all relevant information so that a buyer can make an informed decision.
    Bought a flash new helmet today, here's hoping it'll survive as long as the other one.

    Yea, almost thirty years ago it complied with that standard. Honestly I hope this is just a piss take. Absobluddy irresponsible to be considering selling that piece of shit, unbelievable. I'll leave you to it, hope you make the right decision and bin it!
    Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.

    Yeah .. and I hate riding behind other riders who shed bits of helmet which hit me in the face ..
