Well, the crash testing suggests that it actually works, and in any case once a helmet’s saved your precious brain matter, you would probably be searching for a new one.

What I’m wondering is whether water will compromise the effectiveness of the helmet, even if it dries out before the 3 hour mark. Especially sweat.

“The helmet is coated with a material that makes it rain resistant for between three to four hours.”

i know reading can be hard some times

I’m guessing this just for hipsters who won;t be going above 10 mph cuz their foldup bike is a joke. My first thought is a tree branch would just tear it in half, but a mountain biker like myself would not be looking at these things

Why did you think I mentioned the 3 hour mark?

I’m with Opposaurus on this one. I’m not sure they took into account the most common impact zones when designing this helmet. My last big crash crushed the back of my helmet where this one does not protect.
