Great Helmet
I have owned this helmet for a year and I consider it my "go-to" helmet. I have worn it for both short and long trips without any issues. The flip-down sun shield is awesome. I can leave my prescription sunglasses at home and ride with my regular glasses. Plus, darker sunshields are available at a decent price. The clear face shield gives ample wind protection and it's simple to remove if I want to have some open air riding behind my bike's windshield. Air vents let in ample cooling. Size seems true. Only minor negative is the slight wind noise that enters the helmet. Cheap ear plugs help this. I plan on buying the same helmet in another color very soon (White). Excellent helmet for the price.

Not great
The size seemed different then when I tried it on in several stores. The shield doesn't have sufficient aerodynamics to deflect wind from coming right up into my eyes.....along with debris. Also the sun visor does not come down far enough. hits right in the middle of line of vision.

Works well but could use a few improvements
This is my first helmet with a built in faceshield. Overall I like the fit, but the interior padding that touches the side of my head and cheeks is a bit tight. I was told they would loosen up eventually as I used it but after nearly a year it still is uncomfortable after a long days ride. The interior sun shield is easy to use but I wish it were darker and longer.

Great helmet
I bought this for colder weather. It works great. It is comfortable and very quiet and visibility is great. I like the adjustable face shield, when closed it covers my face fully and with my balaclava on it allows enough fresh air in without being cold. I use anti fog to keep the shield clear below 35 degrees, warmer weather is not an issue. The sun visor work well. It helps with the morning sun but I would like it to be darker, I like not having to use sunglasses with my 3/4 helmet. Overall, I would buy this helmet again.

New Helmet
The first three helmets I used were my spouse's cast offs. This is the first helmet I've bought for myself. I LOVE it. I often go without when it's really hot. Even though the helmets have been white, I would sweat terribly and itch - the helmet often came home on the back of my bike instead of on my head. This new helmet - Wow! I rode for about 5 hours last Sunday in 101 degrees and unbearable humidity. I never had a second of discomfort from my helmet. The air flow was fabulous. The material absorbed what I'm sure I did sweat because when I took my helmet off, my hair was still dry! I don't have to worry any more about the helmet's safety measure irritating me to the point of being dangerous! Thank you!
