New helmet brand?


When does the price of a helmet nullify it's performance?

I'm curious as to price vs. protection, as well as which price point is paying too much.

- I know that protecting your noggin' is priceless, so I don't want to see replies that say something like, "It's your head, pay whatever you want."
- I know that there are different materials from which the outershell is made, thereby increasing or decreasing costs
- I was under the impression that it was the compressing foam inside that protects your head, not that fancy paint scheme
- Some helmets have more/better features: venting, weight, etc.
