How often to replace Helmet

[Guest]

Usually every 5 years unless it had a hard hit being dropped on pavement or something of that nature.

I always figure the new helmet is going to have advanced technology from what I bought 2 or 3 years ago, so that convinces me to buy when I find a good deal. I currently have a Bell Star I got for $200 off the $449 list price, and feel it was well worth it.
