LIGHTWEIGHT, COMFORTABLE AND COOL.
Very light in weight, especially after a cheap Specialized lid.
Very cool, lots of airflow, rode all summer in Canada up to 40 degree heat, always felt quite airy and fresh up-top.
The straps are a bit of a pain to set up, they have a kind of plug mechanism to hold the continuous strap in place.
Also had to pinch some pads from an old helmet to get it to fit perfectly.
Fantastic lid, I have had two years of road and MTB use out of it. Its never let me down and has saved my head in more than one spill.
At this price you can't beat it, come on Giro/Bell/Specialized functionality is one thing but you can't beat a bit of style!!!
I'm so pleased with it I have replaced it with a MET Stradivarius. £54.99 in the sales this winter!!
