Cool helmet Stichill. I have heard of Cabergs. Never known anyone that had one.
I am amazed when I go up to iron Pony and try on helmets the differences between a large in one brand and a large in another brand. Shape, fit, mechanism and latch differences. It's crazy. Don't know how anyone buys one without slipping it on noggin first. I wuill try on dozens of models up at the Pony. FOR ME...the worst is Schuberth, they absolutely hate my head, followed by Bell. For comfort every time I stick on a HJC my head breathes a sigh of relief. So I have a bunch of HJC's. Open face, 3/4, modular and full face. (99% of the time I grab the modular when going for a ride, although I love my 3/4 too). I also am not fond of the internal drop down shields. They are usually too light tint wise for me, and I have had some that rattled.
It seems to me the high front air vent may be an air noise issue. The smoother the shell the less the air flow in interrupted.Will be interesting to see how that one does. On my HJC it has small ones, but it for have the shield cracked open even an inch, which I usually do, the the shield blocks the air intakes, so no flow thru air. Drop the shield and you immediately feel the air flowing thru.
