For my head at least the helmet is comfy. I’ll occasionally, like every maybe 3rd ride, get a little hot spot from one of the bumpers, but all I have to do is just reach up and bump the helmet a little bit and it goes away. This helmet vents so well though that it doesn’t bother me one bit. I’ve been wearing helmets for years from Troy Lee, and Fox that don’t vent one molecule of hot air off my head and to me that’s brutally uncomfortable. The Altec reminds me of good venting Giro helmets before MIPS liners restricted airflow over your noggin. I got the fidlock version and it’s ok, I never had any problems with plain old buckles so that’s a wash, but something else I do like is the visor, it’s just my personal preference but it’s just the right length and width to block the sun but doesn’t restrict visibility. The Fox visor didn’t do anything and the Troy Lee visor was too long and blocked my vision, especially going downhill. I’m probably going to buy another helmet and store it in a dark room in case 100% stops making it. Again, it’s a personal preference thing but I really love how well this helmet vents. Ps. My head is 57.5cm, I bought a S/M and it fits great
