Update on MET Forte review: after 18 months of use

After my review back in July 2010, I have been using my MET Forte cycling helmet nearly every day since. Recently I have also used it for my intermodal commute.

I have been very happy with the fit and performance of this helmet in regards to comfort. It is now showing some signs of wear and tear, plus a few accidental knocks during transfers.
