Strengths:
This is one of the most comfortable helmets I've ever worn. I love that it is one size fits all. I also love the vent covers for the winter and fall riding. Overall a very good helmet on par with the super expensive big names
Weaknesses:
The only real minor complaint is that the locking system to keep it tight on the head is difficult to adjust on the fly with one hand. I'm told the newer models fix that problem
Bottom Line:
Good helmet at a good price. Very comfortable keeps you cool in summer and warm in fall and winter.

I own this helmet! The Lazer Magma helmet is extremely comfortable. I enjoy the winter cap for the crisp fall rides. I find it easy to adjust the size of the helmet in order to secure it. The front vents are enormous!
