This is a very nice helmet that will protect your head well. I have only crashed once so far, was going too fast to make a turn and lost traction, thus sliding into a ditch of trees. I landed on my back head first and the helmet moved a little to absorb the impact (mips did not move yet). It was super protective and comfortable.Terrible goggle strap!!! Aftermarket stick on strap clips are a must!I have a big head and the xl caused some pain, I wish maybe the pads were…
