If I buy a new helmet as a spare and store it out of the sun in the attic will it still be good to use in 3-4 years time?
I've finally found one at a good price that fits beautifully and fancy a spare.
Opinions?
Cheers

I'd suggest wearing them alternately. That way they will take much longer before they get stinky, and you can wear one while the other is being washed / drying.
It should be fine, but obviously no one with guarantee it for you, but in reality yeah go for it. B careful with moisture too. Vacuum pack is I guess?
I'd Just keep it dry ,I actually keep my helmets in football boot bags £2 from
Sports direct ,job done .
Avoid storing much in the attic - they get properly cold in winter and stupidly hot in summer.
OK. So dry and away from light should be ok.
Worth the chance as it's a lovely fit.
Thanks.

Unless you kept it outside, it'd be unlikely to suffer UV deterioration indoors anywhere, just like you don't get a sun tan indoors
Good point that man
