Strengths: Comfortable. Swappable cheek pads. Washable lining. Solid feeling and , sorry, confidence inspiring.Weaknesses: Hot. (Duh, its a full face helmet.)Bottom Line: I decided to get a full face helmet when I realised that I was clearing the rust off my old skills and was going a bit bigger and faster than before. I must admit that there is nothing quite like setting one of these on your melon to boost your confidence.
This is a good helmet at a decent price. For its solidity it is not too heavy. My wife gave me a hard time when I first got it since she thoght it was overkill. Her mind chnged two rides in when I took a header into a rock that wouls have split my XC lid. I just got up and got going again - nice gouge in the finish of the helmet though. Now she won't let me ride without it.
Be prepared to be warm in this thing though. It has a venturi tunnel on top for ventilation, but it does not exactly breathe well. Probably doesnt help that I got a black one too. Personally, I'd rather sweat than drool.
Too bad it doesnt do anything to stop broken collarbones...
Five chilis for comfort, solidity and value. Minus a bit for mediocre ventilation.
