My husband has this one and it is completely falling apart. He got it in the spring and now it is missing the front vent cover, the shield doesn't shut right and one of the vents on top of his head doesn't work. Just a heads up.

Also, the cheek pads will break the mounting tabs if you inadvertantly over pump the airbags!! Initially I liked the helmet, know I wish I had just kept looking. It is a POS of the highest magnititude.
