I have a 2011 Seven Zero Seven full face street bike helmet,
can't find how much the weight is, and also is it wrong,silly, or stupid to use a street bike helmet to go mountain bicycling?

Unless you only go downhill, you'll cook your head.

Helmet safety is not a forgone conclusion after all or is it?

Recent evidence indicates that cyclists who wear helmets are 14 percent more likely to have a collision per mile cycled than those without, and are more likely to suffer neck injuries. Meanwhile, increases in helmet use have never been linked with lower cycle casualty rates".

The problem with "statistics" is - you can make them say anything you want. Fact: Most users of hard drugs started out on marijuana. Using that logic, you can also say that 99.9% of all alcoholics started off on MILK!

Helmets have saved my cookies both on a motorcycle & bicycle. I'll keep mine on - thank you.

Here's what Mark Twain had to say about statistics. Figures often beguile me, particularly when I have the arranging of them myself; in which case the remark attributed to Disraeli would often apply with justice and force: "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics."
