There are different recommendations for human powered bicycles vs. "eBikes" aka mopeds with a 1 horsepower (750W) motor.

Don't forget force=1/2*mass*velocity^2. There's a big difference between casually pedalling a bike at 13 mph and a motor propelling you at 28 mph!
Yes, from the description on rei: "A true all-season performer, the Bern Macon EPS passes both bike and snow safety certifications, taking you from your morning commute to the bike path, and then onto the slopes without missing a beat." There is also an optional winter liner, not included
Checkout the frontpage for Giro bike helmets and other items from dreamrun. I bought the bike helmet with MIPS for $37 (no tax and free shipping).

Can this double as a snowboarding helmet? I think the only difference is that I'll be a little cold with a bike helmet.

Note: on the inside of this helmet it literally disclaims its not intended to prevent any injury whatsoever…

I own the Macon 2.0 MIPS, pretty similar. Great multi discipline helmet for the price, not sure how long they will last but it might be time to replace them anyway by then.

As far as fit, I'm normally a large in smith and giro helmets as I am between sizes but the Bern helmets seem to be rounder, so the medium fits better for me.

I will be using my Bern helmet for snowboarding in the spring and warmer winter days. I actually bought the snow sport model that came with a summer liner that I use for longboarding.

Edit: I've actually seen some people using these with a beanie on cold days

I've had this helmet for about a decade. I love it. Fits well. Looks good. Comfortable. At this price I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

I got this same helmet at REI on closeout for mt bike riding and while the comfort/fit was great, after a few rides I stopped using it due to no ventilation. I did use it on my whitewater kayak, but the inside padding material soaks up water like a sponge. I since moved to a Hyside ww helmet.

Yeah, get a MIPS helmet, folks. It's definitely saved my neck a time or two.

Yes honestly people with e-bikes should wear full face helmets if you ride above speeds that you are unable ti achieve with pedal power
