this helmet is awesome! it looks great. feels sturdy and comfortable. I wear a Pair of Anon M3's with the face mask and its a killer pair. the goggles fit perfectly and the mask covers everything else exposed.

For starters, this helmet looks great. I like the little bit of a brim that it has. It is right in between most helmets I think. Not too pronounced, but it's still there. I was worries about not using Anon goggles with it, but my Smith I/O's match up perfectly. Another positive is that is extremely well ventilated! On those colder days you can close off those vents very easily, though. You just slide back the little knob on top of the helmet. The Fidlock Snap is super nice as well. Its a magnetic buckle that snaps right into, so it really helps out with fastening the chinstrap when you have gloves or mittens on.

My only complaint is that I can feel a couple of the MIPS fastening point pressing into the back of my head. I can't actually feel the MIPS liner, since it is super thin. I can feel a couple of the point that fasten the liner to the helmet, though. They press against the back of my head in a couple places. I think this will get less noticeable as I wear the helmet, so I'm going to hold onto the helmet. It is not really even uncomfortable enough to warrant exchanging it. My only other complaint is that the goggle strap securing deal on the back of the helmet is just a stiff piece of plastic, not a rubber strap like I've used before. It doesn't do the job as well as a rubber strap, but really the goggle strap itself sticks to the helmet well enough to keep from worrying about them falling off the helmet. Another thing that some may see as a disadvantage is the earpads are not removable. This is not an issue for me, but I can see how that would be a nice feature for most folks.

All in all I think this will be a great helmet for this season! If I find anything that changes my mind I'll come back and leave another comment.
