    Helmet hair + high speed

    What sort of speeds should i expect my Helmet Hairy to stay on until, just had the front suction cup come loose doing 100kmh, maybe i need to lick it a bit more ?

    i was thinking they should stay on til a fair speed, has anyone had one stay on 200kmh plus ?

    Superglue?

    Aren't they designed for about 250kph? Not really sure about their top speed but I remember them holding on past 200

    My mohawk stays on at 300 k's, but my hair doesn't.

    Helmet Mohawk's.

    Watched a young fella buy one of those Mohawk for his helmet in ChCh one day.
    Sadly it didn't even last through the first set of gear changes! John.
