Maate, don't use logic with mePlenty of roadies have crashed at 90kph+. It ends in load of injuries but if the helmet breaks that first head hit on the ground, there's a lot better chance of getting away without brain damage.
Was that a roadie or MTB. Good speed
You might also be doing 70, 80, 90km/h+ before crashing, but get some braking in before you bin it and "only" come off at 30-40km/h where a helmet could make a very significant difference.Plenty of roadies have crashed at 90kph+.
