Recently had a slow-speed crash - wondering if I should replace my helmet recently I got into a slow speed crash that ended up with me scuffing into a wall and the pavement. Initially I didn't feel any head-crash but after finishing my ride I noticed that my helmet was scuffed as well as a fine line on the same side of my head where I think the helmet pushed into my skin (just a mark no wound). I read that light scuff marks without impact shouldn't matter, but since I have that mark I imagine there was "some" impact to it. Hence I'm wondering should I be replacing this helmet? (my gutt says yes, since I only have one head) ![enter image description here](

It is generally recommended to inspect a helmet and replace if necessary after an impact.

Inspection involves pressing on the outside shell looking for areas where the foam is compressed and taking out the padding from the inside to look for signs of compression or cracks. Some good advice can be found at the following links: <

Most helmet manufacturers offer some form of crash replacement scheme. In the case of your Lazer helmet (in the UK) this can be found here: <
