Awesome Helmet!
2019-10-08I was raised on a dairy farm and we always had dirt bikes, 3-wheeler's, and 4-wheeler's growing up. These days my nieces and nephews ride the toys and the adults watch/ride with them . . . once in awhile my brother and I might race on the four wheeler's for the fun of it :oD I was using a helmet that I purchased 25 years ago . . . general rule of thumb is to replace a helmet every 5 years (according to google) . . . . Needless to say I am long over due for a new helmet. I saw this helmet and decided to try it out.Pros:*Helmet liner has snap buckles and can come in/out with ease for cleaning - this will be awesome being that I typically ride on hot summer days in Wisconsin and you never know how much dirt/sweat has accumulated in the padding of the helmet. In addition, if the helmet is shared with anyone else, I know I will be able to clean it out well!*The dual visor will be handy for me. I am typically riding in wooded areas on warm days with buckthron, I will be able to put the outside visor down while riding through the wooded area to protect my face, then put it up and put the inner sun shield down when I am riding through the open field area - this will also allow the helmet to breath so the inside of the helmet won't fog up on me; plus I won't have to squint or wear sun glasses inside of my helmet anymore, which will provide additional comfort while riding. The nice part about this helmet is that both visors can be down at the same time.*If I want, I can also remove the visors and wear riding goggles; so my options are endless when it comes to eye/face protection.*The quick release safety buckle will be handy to use, especially with riding gloves on. I lose dexterity in my hands with riding gloves and it's hard to fasten the chin strap of my old helmet through the D-Hooks. This chin strap will be easy to secure and release at anytime with riding gloves.*The helmet is DOT Certified for the rider safetyCons:*None at this timeFYI*My forehead size is ~23 inches (58.42 cm). I am right between the Medium and the Large helmet size. I chose to go with the medium one (figuring a firm fitting helmet would be better than one that was slightly lose on my head). The medium was the right choice because the helmet fits great!I'm going to probably try this helmet out with my motorcycle as well (1997 - 883 Harley Davidson); right now I have a half helmet that I normally use, but that half helmet is probably past it's life as well. If I remember, I will update my post after I try this helmet out a few times, I'm excited to use it right now!Ver másVer menos
