This is the first helmet I bought, and I'm pretty disappointed with it. The visor levers that allow you to remove the visor and put it back on are very poor design and quality. A few plastic parts broke after only about 3 weeks. The helmet is much larger than that of the same size bell helmets, and it seems to weigh a bit more, but I guess that's because of the internal visor.

The helmet... is also extremely loud. I tried out my friends Bell Star, and it was about 50% quieter. Also, I bought the U-Clear HBC 100 and put them into my helmet, which was easy enough... but I discovered the speaker holes are way too far up on the head, resulting in a very quiet set of speakers. I had to actually cut a bit out of the foam so I could put the speakers in.

I'll be buying a new helmet very soon. Just my 2 Cents.
