Excellent helmet (07.03.2024)

I've had this helmet for a weeks now and have been able to take a few rides with it. It's comfortable, and very quiet. It does seem quieter than my old GT Air. This is my first modular helmet so I'm still getting used to it but I really like it so far. The neck rolls are pretty snug, not uncomfortably so, but just enough to prevent air from getting up into the helmet. There is also some additional material there that further helps to prevent wind from entering.
The size chart is accurate. My head measures 57.5 cm and the medium fits perfectly. Aerodynamics are great too, no additional issues when turning my head to lane check.
The only minor criticism I have would be the new design to lift up the visor. There's a small tab you depress to open it, but with gloves on it can be a little challenging as you have to get your fingertip into a small depression to push on the tab. As I get more accustomed to the helmet this has gotten easier.
The drop down sun visor is not dark at all. I kind of prefer it that way but some people might wish it was darker. I only want it to reduce glare, so I'm fine with it.
Good ventilation, although it's been too cold to really need it, but I have tried it out and it will be effective this summer.
I do like the chin strap. I adjusted it so it doesn't bother my adams apple. The new strap design is thinner and softer. I like the simplicity over a double D- ring design, but it does mean you can't lock it to your bike.
Overall, a fantastic helmet. I highly recommend it.
