I've not had any significant impacts to this one (bought after hitting a tree with my last helmet on a red run) - but it probably has had its share of knocks and bumps over the years.</p> <p>good to hear if people has thoughts or opinions on whether it would be wise to replace, or to keep wearing it assuming it will give me a similar level of protection as it did when new (ignoring the debate about how much that is if possible :) </p>
