Rocker or Strutter ???

[Richard7575]

Hi Guys,
Im looking at getting a new helmet and have narrowed it down to 2. I was almost set on the rocker until I found a pretty good deal on the strutter. I can see the rocker has far more features in the way of safety but for the price wonder if the Strutter will hold up to G3- G5 water ??? what do you think? link to strutter and price as follows --

I would go for a rocker, I had a strutter and I cracked it on the Moriston. I don't even think it was a huge hit like I wasn't dizzy or have a major headache. Seen so many rockers take a beating and still seem pretty solid whereas the strutter becomes quite flexy. Why not have a look at the wanderer? I was going to get one instead of the rocker but my parents gave me a bit of money so hence I went for the rocker.

But the main thing is go for one that fits! My girlfriend wanted a strutter but it didn't fit right so instead went for a wrsi current, which I personally think are really good helmets! So just try as many as you can!
