According to the product specialist
Pros
| Excellent finish quality. |
| Lightweight helmet at just 198 grams for a size M. |
| Well ventilated because of the 21 large vents. |
| The MIPS system reduces the shock of a crash substantially, increasing head safety. |
| Its compact shape and Aero Mesh panels create good aerodynamic capabilities. |
| The 26 air vents and the Roc Loc Air Fit System guarantee optimal ventilation. |
| The X-static Padding has antibacterial properties, making the helmet stay fresh for longer. |
| The specials slots allow you to easily put your cycling glasses on the helmet. |
| Very aerodynamic helmet to help you maintain your velocity. |
| The Forced Air Cooling introduces a cooling air stream for ventilation. |
| The Airport makes storing your cycling glasses easy. |
| The Zoom Ace adjustment allows for the creation of the perfect fit. |
| The FlowStraps chin strap is highly adjustable, making it lie still in heavy winds. |
Cons
| The white straps of the helmet can easily look a little grimy. |
| The straps are a little inflexible. |
| MIPS grants extra safety, but also makes the helmet a little heavier. |
| The Roc Loc Air adjustment system feels a bit fragile for a bicycle helmet of this grade. |
| Aerodynamic helmets will never offer the same ventilation as an 'open' helmet. |
