Anyone have one, what are they like etc.

Recommendations or stay clear?

Nearly got one myself a few years back and my brother had one, OK helmet, looks Ace, but noisey and heavy, generally I'd say to much durability sacrificed for looks, the Division is a better bet, either R010 or later R020 (although they aren't flips).

Cheers Mark

Have yet to see anyone ride with one of these with the flip down

I thought they all broke really easily and Roof wouldnt repair them :P

I thought they changed the design this year, with a locking chin, rather then big popers like before.

They look cool as feck, especially with a dark visor.

Pros - very comfortable and cool with the cin bar flipped back

Cons - mists like buggery with the chin bar down & chin is very close to the chin bar - no good if you have a jimmy
hill chin

I had this one for a couple of years:-
