I don’t know if you think $100 is a lot of money, but I’m certain that a Giro Agilis MIPS helmet saved my life when I got broadsided by a car making a left turn across traffic who claimed he “didn’t see me” despite bright clothing and a blinking white front light. I slid up the hood and smashed the windshield with my head and left shoulder. I broke the shoulder and the side of my helmet was smashed flat but I only had a mild concussion. If my bare head had hit that hard, I’m certain I wouldn’t be typing this now.
