My gauge on helmet replacement is - if I’ve hit hard enough to “feel it” on my head, and know that I hit significantly, I’ll replace it. I don’t crash very often, and I usually get as high end of a helmet as I can afford, so it isn’t an insignificant amount of money.
I figure that if I spend thousands on my bikes, why would I not spend a few hundred bucks on proper helmets? Insert your own vice that you spend a lot of money on \(bikes, beer, weed, food, coffee, etc\) and figure out if your head is worth getting the best that you can. I’ll cut out a few coffees or beers per month or week in order to get a good lid.
