Excellent... Sounds positive..a couple of concerns from reading up on it was the weight and the visor... Be interesting to see what it like on the bike.. This work thing just gets in the way :aidan:thumb

Ok used helmet for a few weeks and here is my experience with it. Visor mists to easy pin lock no help better without it. Top vent has stuck open it vents well but I can't close it. If you have visor open at first notch it gets a very fast vibration and sets up a drumming tru the whole helmet. The chin bar is too high so you can't look down at the clocks without bending your head. It's rather noisy not what you would expect from a 'quality' helmet. Good points are that it is comfortable to wear and has a ratchet faster. So to sum up it is not what I expected in a helmet and it would not be worthwhile to send it back. I should have wated for the nec
