I have a scooter that is supposed to go upwards of 50mph, although the state speed limit for e-scooters is 20mph, and I need to find a better helmet. I am currently using a bike helmet.

I live 2 hours outside the city, and whenever I do make it to the city I never have time to find a motorcycle shop to look for a helmet.

So I am looking for a good online source. I have no plans to take the scooter up to the full 50mph, but have had it going 35mph. Normally I am going 15-25 though.

      I second this suggestion: OP will very much want a full face helmet. Bicycle helmets have a general design requirement to keep bicyclists cooled by the wind to stay comfortable, which is why they usually don’t go down to cover the chin.

      But motorbikes and scooters don’t have that requirement and instead have to deal with too much wind at higher speeds, in addition to greater risk of neck rotation upon ground contact.
