Just opened it and took it for a spin!! Here's a few quick notes, followed by details.
1 - the reviews about the cheek pads are accurate. They're very tight.
2 - very quiet helmet
3 - the peak is great for low speeds, not so great for high speeds.
4 - the drop down visor is great for tint, not so much at wind protection.
5 - interior wind channels are amazing at keeping your dome cool.
6 - modular switch is a pull lever instead of a push button.
7 - vent and visor interfaces are smooth and intuitive.
8 - all around great helmet for the price. Would definitely recommend.
Details:
The first thing I noticed when I put the helmet on was how tight the cheek pads were. After an hour long ride, my cheeks/jaw were a bit sore from how tight they were. However, all helmets need some form of break in period. Once I wear the helmet more, I imagine the helmet will conform to my features and become more comfortable with use.
The helmet is much, much quieter than my last helmet. There's a slight whistle from the passage of air through the channels, but my bluetooth system is easy to hear even at..... over highway speeds.
I had planned on removing the peak anyway, but wanted to see how it would feel. At low speeds, it channels tons of air into the top vent and keeps your head very stable. Once you get past 45mph, it starts catching the wind and whipping your head around. If you ride with a passenger, they will have an industrial blower on their helmet. The peak funnels air across the top vent and straight backwards. My passenger said they had a hard time keeping their head steady from the funneled air. With the peak removed, there was still plenty of airflow through the top vent at highway speeds, just a little less at low speeds. In addition, if you ride with the visor open or removed, the peak will cause extra gusts to curl in the sides and behind the drop down visor.
As for the visor, i'm new to helmets with them, so i'm not sure if they're all like this, but it does not work so well for wind protection. It's obviously better than without, but even with the visor down, I still got plenty of wind around the back, which dried out my contacts after only a few minutes. The tint is great for reducing glare without being too dark. But if you like to ride with the visor up, it's no substitute for a good pair of sunglasses.
The wind channels built into the helmet do a very good job of funneling air around your head and keeping the whole helmet comfortably cool.
I really like that the modular switch is pull instead of push. In a crash, there's much less chance of the button getting hit and popping the top up.
Very nice helmet and even more with the dark visor ( purchased apart ) im 57 size , bought the M size and its a bit tight but i guess it will loose a bit using it more , only down side , cant use a gopro on top of it for the visor position but over all nice looking and comfortable helmet , happy with my purchase
Very nice built helmet. Visor is clear and vision is great. Finish is excellent. Usually wear a medium and ordered a medium and it's very tight. I would advise to order a size up
Comfortable helmet. We use it in our side by side
Awesome helmet. Fits as expected and looks great.
