What should I look for in off-road helmets?

In-depth explanation

Off-road helmets should prioritise ventilation, a pronounced peak to deflect roost, room for goggles, and a durable shell for chunky impacts. Look for removable liners that dry quickly and good peripheral vision for trail awareness. Consider dual-sport helmets if you need a road-legal configuration.
