[Closed] Best helmets for mounting lights on

Which helmets work best with Exposure helmet lights? I find that MIPS helmets(Fox Conduit, Giro Chronicle) move around too much with the added weight on top, especially on bumpy ground and when landing drops. I also worry that it's putting undue stress on the little rubber bands that hold the MIPS liner in place. Some helmets don't have central vents(Fox Conduit), or the vents are too far forward to backwards to give a good position. Which helmets have people found to work the best with Exposure lights?

good question. I've been looking for such a helmet for a while, albeit not very actively.

I use one of the iterations of a Bell Super, which has a central gopro mount. I don't use an exposure head torch, but believe you can get exposure mounts for these too.

i just use a dirt jump lid with a stuck on go pro mount and joystick holder. Quite good as doesnt move and keeps head warm too.

Kask Rex with its built-in GoPro mount and the Exposure adapter.

As above - Kask Rex - I've got one of the Chinese lights with a velcro band, fitted over the light mount and it was ideal position. Cable held out the way with the goggle clip (obviously not an issue with Exposures and the like)
[edit]blimey! Pricey now aren't they!

Giro Montaro is great with my Exposure Joystick, use the included GoPro mount that just needs the Exposure adaptor, Doesn't move around too much and is easy to mount the light

+1 for the Giro Montaro. Works well with my Diablo.

Have had a couple of bell supers (2 & dh) both worked well with my joystick light on the go pro mount

I have the same movement issues with my Montaro but my OnOne enduro helmet is perfect, plus it only cost £20!
