There is likely zero inherent defect in any FOX helmet....but humans still run the factories, and humans make mistakes in design and manufacture sometimes in all industries. was this helmet defective I doubt it highly. is riding a bike on a pump track hazardous hell yes.



how the heck are you going to quantify 'go with a brand that cares more about protection' ? really ? so you mean only use Bontrager WaveCel helmets ? Oh no maybe a Koroyd ? maybe MIPS liquid ? oh you need chin protection then ? ok what brand ?





seriously, what brand 'cares the most ' ? I'd love to know who cares the most.
