It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Quite pricey. Even more expensive when you realize helmets are supposed to be replaced every three years.

It's always said 5 on all my helmets (or immediately after a crash) but the conditions the helmet was kept in and maybe manufacturing could play a role. Either way, most I paid for a helmet is $300 but it also saved my life so, worth it! If I did emoto I'd probably be willing to spend more but the craziest stuff I do is ebike and singletrack so a downhill MTB helmet was plenty.
