Default Is this a good helmet? VERY cheap at a local dealership.

I know a lot of people say not to go cheap on a helmet but this is on sale at a dealer by my brother.

What do you think?

The one the OP has listed is $75.95 on ebay to your door. Have never heard of the brand but does not necessarily mean they are crap.

Get whatever helmet fits your head, you'll never wear the cheap or expensive helmet that doesn't fit. If it has DOT then you are set.
