Price Paid:  $68.00 at REI on a sale

Favorite Ride:
Any Touring Ride

Bike Setup:
Madone 4.7

Summary:
I had the same problem with the fit as another reviewer. One of the forward pivots of the adjustable harness has popped out twice and that was while the helmet was off and I was making adjustments to the straps. The padding was also thin on the sides causing the helmet to kind of sit on my head like a large bowl. I'm taking it back.

Strengths:
Sharp looking, reasonable price.

Weaknesses:
Harness and fit.

Price Paid:  $85.00 at Straight Up Cycles

Favorite Ride:
Saanich

Summary:
I do not like the suspension/fit system on this helmet. The suspension system is attached to the the shell at only two points by a very small plastic snap. Tightening the suspension to snug the fit invariably causes the snap to pop out.

In effect, this means that the helmet has to be worn loosely. I'm also concerned that with repeated releases the snap will eventually wear out and stop working at all.

Strengths:
Price (I guess).

Weaknesses:
Unreliable/weak fit system.
