@SRLevine asks:

Q4. How long do you keep a helmet that has neither been in an accident nor is expired? Assuming regular/daily use.

@ascentale @SRLevine @bikenite A4: I don't understand why you'd get rid of a helmet early, so I don't.

@moira @ascentale @SRLevine @bikenite because the foam breaks down invisibly in sunlight.

@geonz @ascentale @SRLevine @bikenite Yeah but that's what the expiry date is for. Therefore, this is specifically excluding that, and I am still without a reason.

@moira @ascentale @SRLevine @bikenite Okay, "early." I'm not sure my helmets have dates ;) I also think the foam techhas improved.
