I'm in the market for a new helmet; I mainly use my bike for city commuting. My current helmet is quite old, and lacks MIPS (which I want).

Budget is up to about £100, I'd like integrated (or option to mount) a rear facing LED light. I don't care about aero, but do care about cooling as my head gets sweaty.

Any recommendations?

I recently picked up a Bontrager Stravos MIPS based on reviews and a quick trail fit, it's a really comfy helmet. Doesn't meet your requirements for a light though I dont think, but well within budget.

I almost got a Giro Savant, was a really good price at about £45 - but in the end, I went OTT and got a Bell Sixxer for £90 - it's an offroad helmet really, but I don't care about weight - wanted a visor / peak and I care most about best protection.
