Can anyone recommend me a decent MTB helmet? Looking to spend £80-£100.

Head butted Rivi Pike one to many times at the weekend and need a new one.

BTW, saw a bloke on a unicycle coming down the trail (this was before I hit my head)

What type of helmet do you want? Lightweight with lots of vents or lots of coverage?
What was your old un?

Canne tell you what to buy, as everyone head shape is different, so you need to try them out first.
I want to replace my Xen (discontinued) but the Xar doesn't fit me, and the fantastic looking Urge Enduro-matic definitely doesn't fit me.

Looking for something lightweight, with good coverage, don't want full face. Current is a Fox, no idea what model. Cost me about £60 and have been happy with it. Fancy something different - that Urge looks nice, I do more natural trails/xc riding.

Any recommended brands / shared decent experiences would be fine...

Thanks

Fox and 661's are very similar (661 seems a tad cheaper), get good reviews if you want more of the same, though the fox seemed a bit mushroom like on my head.
I liked my Giro Xen a lot (had 2), the Xar, Feature and Hex were/are on my list & have a lot of coverage.
