Nice, fits well, less wearing of cap under helmet due to placement of glasses in cooling slots

- Tony, 27 March, 2025

Ordered two sizes, with 10 months manufacturing difference between the two. Size M out 10/2024. Size S from 11/2023. With a recommendation to replace the helmet every 5 years, I only have 3.5 years to go with the size S as it fits best. That's a bummer for 169,- though the price seemed keen. I'm still hesitating to score a fresher one somewhere. Adjustment mechanism, I read, would take some getting used to compared to boa/swivel button. However, this came naturally and works fine. Yes he you have to push a little harder with your finger on the end to tighten properly. When inserting the goggles into the helmet's intended cooling slots, the goggle legs are not pre-focused so well that they follow their path neatly along your head. The legs are held in a bit tightly. That pushing apart of the legs is something your head mainly still has to do, so the goggle legs poke into your head first and with some pushing through, they then follow their path along your skull. If you then wear a cap underneath, you thus poke the paws too much into the fabric of the cap, which the paws also bite into. They don't continue their way past your skull because they get stuck in the fabric. So wearing a cap means no glasses on the head in the helmet. My too-old protone has managed that a lot better, though.

Pros & Cons

Adjustment mechanism works fine, as good as boa
Aesthetically pleasing helmet
Manufacturing date 11/2023! That will cost me years of use
With cap under the helmet, glasses can be inside the helmet
