  • @stegeaa
    @stegeaa 5 місяців тому +6

    It puts my mind at ease seeing you get into a new helmet, that old one probably wouldn't do much in the event of a serious accident. The EPS layer (the stuff they shoved into the shell) gets super brittle after many years and deteriorates over time, which in turn makes it absorb less and less of the impact in a crash. Most helmets have expiration dates because of this reason, as companies can't guarantee the safety rating the helmet is rated at (SNELL, ECE, DOT etc) after that time frame passes because of this. Arai's are fantastic and I hope that new one treats you well!
