What feature is essential to take into account when buying a protective helmet?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

When buying a helmet, besides checking that it is approved, it is advisable for it to have a good ventilation system, with air intakes and outlets. Good airflow prevents the head from overheating, reduces the rider's fatigue and prevents the visor from fogging up with breath. Choosing dark and matte colors is not recommended: light or bright colors and reflective elements are preferable, because they improve the motorcyclist's visibility. And choosing an open-face helmet just because it is more comfortable is a mistake, because the full-face helmet also protects the jaw and face in an impact.
