Yes. Bell Drop. Good airflow.

Would this be a good helmet for downhill? http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008Z9HV28?vs=1

I was able to grab the Black Carbon in a medium for $50

I'm not going to bother searching but I have a bookmark for a bell drop at 110NZD. That's 90USD. You should surely be able to find one for around 60-70USD.

Edit: I lied. I could be bothered http://www.amazon.com/Bell-2008339-Drop-Bike-Helmet/dp/B001GAOLQ2


Edit Again: Seems like I underestimated the cost of this helmet , and I seemingly just found an NZ site with a strangely good deal.

Sure!

I wear a Bell Drop on my noggin, with a Drift Stealth 2 attached up top and a Cygolite Expilion 850 on the side and a bunch of reflective tape all over it. On the back of my head is a Cygolite Hotrod.

On my bod I've got a SixSixOne Rage Pressure Suit, and an Ergodyne Assault hi-viz MOLLE vest.

On days when I need my laptop, I bring along an Ortlieb 20L Velocity backpack.

On the vest I wear a Boombotix Rex, a 26" folding baton, an air horn, my cell phone case, and a Sharpee marker. If I'm not wearing a backpack, I wear a MOLLE pouch for my toolkit and another for my rain gear mounted to the back of the vest. I wear another Hotrod back there, too.

I also keep a Cygolite Dash 450 on my bars in flashing mode, and a second Stealth 2 mounted off my seatpost pointed backwards.

My jeans are swrve slim cuts.

I wear a Mixed Works Lark on my waist for wallet/misc, and for a waterproof place for my phone in case it rains; that's where I keep my Kryptonite as well.

Generic biking gloves, and the shoes are Specialized, but I don't know the model/make (bought them off Ebay).

No shame in wearing protective gear. At least a helmet provides enough critical protection. I wear a helmet and gloves and am willing to accept scrapes and potential broken bones. With the helmet, I figure if I'm falling, I'm probably going to smack my face on something given the upright position, so I went with a full face helmet. It still kind of feels like overkill, but I honestly don't care because I know my face is protected and I won't have to worry about potential dental work, which I'm pretty sure everyone hates. For the gloves, it's more of avoiding being annoyed should I get scrapes on my hands from breaking a fall.

Recently, we had a hit and run on a kid obeying all the rules of the road. The driver turned left into oncoming traffic (bicyclist) and the kid wasn't wearing a helmet. Last I read he was in bad condition in the hospital and he didn't do anything wrong from witness accounts.

Maybe urban cyclists need to adopt full face helmets. I know that they look silly and add weight but losing teeth makes you lighter in a painful way example
