New Giro Merit MTB Helmet Review: Is cheaper better?

Is cheaper actually better?
https://www.giro.co.uk/cycling-c45/he...
Giro's new Merit uses the unique Spherical MIPS protection system and other features from their Manifest helmet, but with more protection and a less 'perched' feel at a more affordable price.
Thanks to Giro, Peaty’s and Crud for sponsoring the channel, Dillon and Garin at In Good Taste for sending the helmet over for test and for my Patreon supporters for their monthly pledges.
