More money gets you more comfort, more features, zippier styling, etc. But the helmet me and mine use, the $50 (on sale) Giro Register MIPS is every bit as good as your $200 Fox. Saving small amounts of money here and there throughout the year can add up to real money over time.
"The Giro Register earned a 4 star rating. Its STAR value score of 17.06 ranked #130 of 178 helmets tested."

"The Fox Dropframe Pro MIPS earned a 5 star rating. Its STAR value score of 8.85 ranked #5 of 178 helmets tested."

You know anybody that does 20+ mile rides on a trike? With hills? My area is very safe, few lights or stop signs. My summer ended in August, this is already a long winter for me. I can't wait.
