Noise helmet

Ranked #2020 - Helmets
February 18, 2008
I bought this helmet after ~10 years in a Red that needed to be retired. It fits well compared to others I've tried, (I generally lean toward the fit of Giros), it's comfy. I like the ear pieces and can hear well. Only gripes are it's going to scuff very easily (white, but I knew that...) and I get a bit of the gaper gap feeling with my Prodigys. No, you can't see the gap, but there is some definite air flow due to the way they set up the venting to keep goggs from fogging. Overall, fantastic helmet!
