Hey guys

I've been considering having one shipped to Texas, but would like to get opinions from owners.

First and most importantly, is there any optical distortion in the shield? I've tried a couple of other helmets and had to sell them due to distortion. From the pics it looks as if the Held may have less of a compound curve on the shield and I'm hoping that's the case.

Second, is the visor low enough to be effective in blocking sun and/or roost and spray?
I like the Shoei Hornet but the visor is so high and small it's basically useless other than as a fashion accessory so the search continues :mad:

Having never seen a Held, I'm assuming it is more in the quality level of HJC or similar than the Arai or Shoei...

Thoughts and experiences with the Held would be greatly appreciated :bow
