Shark Speed R Ike - Matt Black / White / Black

Good quality product, but could be better.

Overall a well made helmet with great features. The flip down sun visor is easy to use on the move and has a nice dark tint, which feels like you're using a tinted visor. The visor itself is crystal clear and has a nice smooth action, although it could benefit a "pinlock" type system to keep it open at a desired level. I found the helmet great when facing forwards and the aero-dynamic features work well but when you turn your head to look behind you, the helmet feels heavy and has a lot of drag. Also the visibility when looking back over your shoulder is quite restricted because of the nose piece and angle of the sides. Both of these things I'm sure I'll get used in time. Also I felt the helmet to be quite noisy, which Shark insisted it isn't in all the reviews I read before buying one. The internal padding is very well positioned and it fits great, being removable and washable is bonus too. The overall finish of the helmet is good and in the Matt black and white colour scheme looks stunning!. All in all a good quality helmet for the money.
