Wonder how it’ll compare to 6d and the other higher end lids.

Those lines look a bit Walmart.... like the dodgy helmet shapes you see in Mx computer games!

I hate to see one without a high end paint job.

This angle looks fantastic. I think the nose will just have to grow on me.

Curious to find out if the two shell pieces are made of different material. Maybe something lika a very stiff but brittle carbon fiber around the head combined with a tougher kevlar chin bar.

I felt the same way about the Alpinestars S-M10 when it was first released, I’m digging it now

It’s certainly better in profile than straight on. The nose piece lines have a bunch of tension points and the angles just clash.

After some time we will think it looks great.. same thing was with Alpinestar new helmet that looked bad on first photos. At track it looked bubble head or 3 years old with way too big helmet but maybe its just way we get more safe helmets.
Without visor...

From what I can see, the visor will be fixed? So much about their state of the art magnetic visor...

Ugliest damn helmet I've seen other than some of the cheapo Walmart specials.

Seems to be direct opposite thinking of Arai's "Egg shape" philosophy of smooth lines that dont catch the ground.

The technology inside of the helmet is awesome. Think fluid

It does look like it ran into the back of a bus. The Triangle beams shapes and venting seems a good idea to combine lite weight strength and venting. Wonder how it performs or feels like to wear probably most NB factors. They could still get all the engineering components without compromising style and class.

IMO Troy Lee and Bell have good taste style and class
