        Comments about Bern Brentwood Bike Helmet:

        With The Brentwood's Good looks and "cool demeanor" set aside. This is honestly the best fitting helmet I've ever worn. For me it's an everyday necessity, like wearing pants, socks and a shirt, it's not something I forget to put on. The interchangable visor/liners are not gimmicky or tacky at all, they have proven to be very practical and useful if you tough out the weather year round. Definitely worth every penny of the price tag!

        Also note, The adjustable strap on the summer visor fits a clip to a rear flasher very conveniently and confortably. Paired along with a good headlamp and you got a good night riding setup.

        Great Helmet but missing removable visor

          Cons

          • Missing removable visor

          Best Uses

            Comments about Bern Brentwood Bike Helmet:

            This used to be a great helmet. I bought one last year and loved it. At that time it came with 2 headbands - one with visor and one without. Now these helmets are sold with only one headband - one with visor.

            The description says the visor is removable, but this is completely misleading. The visor is indeed attached to a removable headband lining, but the helmet does NOT come with a visorLESS headband to replace it. Therefore, while the visor is technically "removable", this is completely useless because you cannot then wear the helmet!

            And to the best of my knowledge, the visorless headband is not even available for sale separately either! Completely ridiculous if you ask me.

            I can't even use the visorless headband from my old helmet, because they changed the button-snaps so it wont fit the new version of the Brentwood helmet.

            Come on Bern, get with the program!

              Comments about Bern Brentwood Bike Helmet:

              This fits well but it's ugly. It is too round and clunky looking for everyday commuting IMO. I wanted something on the low profile side without compromising protection so I exchanged it for the Bern Macon and I am very happy with that model. The Brentwood just looks more like a kids ski helmet when worn.

              Comments about Bern Brentwood Bike Helmet:

              Good helmet with many possible uses. Excellent protection with a well-ventilated liner and breathable & 2 snap-in absorbent sweat/head bands with either the visor/brim attached or not. The fit is good and snug though I can also fit an lightweight beanie cap under it it for early morning rides in cold weather.

              Definitely an alternative to the more streamlined and Flight of the Navigator spaceship-looking bike helmets out there but it is a little blockish/chunky looking in its own right. (The flat-ish forehead area was actually a boon for the purposes of attaching the Adapt mount for my Petzl Tikka XP 2 headlamp for taking night rides though). Good choice for a helmet overall.

                Greatest helmet ever! Super comfy and low-profile. I don't look like a jerk wearing this helmet and it's much better than other brands I have tried.

                  Well ventilated for warm weather riding -- converts easily with liner for cold weather riding and ski / snowboard use. Helmet looks good and functions very well. No need to buy separate brain buckets for biking and snow sports. I like the matte olive color, too.

                    This helmet saved my life. Was hit by a taxi on my way to work and landed head first on asphalt. Got pretty banged up but my head was ok. I've never written an online review of a product before, but this one deserves it.
