@motouk Got it, Glad I got a nice new helmet I’m going to love wearing.

    “Airbrake deployed.”

    I hope the ears also work as air intakes for the 3 hot days the UK has in a year. 😊

      They have a vents in them so air passes through them. But I also have little vents near them that lets some air in, what’s really helpful went going at some speed.

        That’s awesome! So the ears are stock and the helmet passed all safety checks, ECE certified and such?

          Yes, the ears are made to just snap off if you did crash but strong enough to stay on when just generally riding around.

          They are also ECE certified

            Glad they’re designed to breakaway in case of an accident because they look like a one way ticket to a broken neck if they weren’t

            Great!! Didn’t expect that. Love the matching colours. Happy riding and always keep the rubber side down, shiny side up.

              Will, do and will hopefully actually have some rubber and shine to go out on my own instead of just being a backseat driver :3
