Strengths: Very light for a full face. Decent ventilation, and killer looks.Weaknesses: The only thing I don't like is the chin strap. The helmet fits great everywhere, but when I do up the chin strap, it almost chokes me it's so tight!Bottom Line: I wanted a good full face to give me a little more confidence on the trail. Where I ride, there are a LOT of ladder bridges and log rides, at different heights, and right along an approx 100ft drop to a river. I never rode them in fear of falling down the valley. Now I won't say I've ridden them all now, but I have rode some, and I wouldn't have without this helmet.
It's a little on a hot side in the summer heat, but that was expected. In the cold months, it's been great for keeping my head and face warmer...an added unexpected bonus.
If I were a downhiller/freerider, I don't think I would choose this helmet, but if you're an all mountain guy, then I highly recommend it. Try finding a full carbon full face at this price point...you wont!
I'm knocking off a couple chili's overall because of the chin strap

Strengths: Light weight, strong, good field of vision, fits well (all relative to the size of your head), looks pretty hot (shape of helmet was better in person than it looked on the internet), lots of bling action. Awesome price on Chainlove.com. Thanks guys!Weaknesses: I would rather it had a "clip" for a strap rather than the pull through dual d-rings. Still works well though.Bottom Line: Great light weight helmet that looks awesome. If you can get it from the guys/gals at chainlove.com it well worth it. I wouldn't have paid the $250 sixsixone was asking. It get five Flamin' Value Chilis thanks to chainlove.com.
