Scorpion Exo-Tech Pro - Commuta Black / Silver

I had the non-pro version of this helmet and was rear-ended at about 50mph while stationary. I was catapulted into the air and about 10m forwards, over the car that was stopped in front of me. The helmet was fully closed up when I was hit and showed impact marks to the ground on the back, top, front and one side, but my head was fine. So, no problem buying another one, I'm very confident in its ability to perform when needed. I like the practical design, comfort, ventilation and quality is good. The downside is that it is noisy with the visor up... which I hated at first, but then my eyes appreciated because that noise made me close the visor more often, stopping kak hitting my face. Chin bar and visor closed up, it's still not a quiet helmet, but with ear plugs, it's great.

I have found this helmet to be very good quality (had a number of Arai's and a Schuberth). The fit is very good for me and unlike many modular helmets the cheek pads are effective at squashing the cheeks slightly. The vents work well, the pinlock and visor are faultless and the anti fog on the sun shade is a very good touch. All of the touch points like the chin mechanism, visor, vents and sun shade are simple and effective without fault. The lining is more than good enough but the material is not as plush as a £500+ helmet, as expected. A real bonus aspects is that it's possible to clamp on an intercom (Sena 20S) so sticky mounts are not relied on. The only downsides for me are that the speaker pockets are a tiny bit shallow for Sena 20S speakers. Fitting a boom mic is difficult but not impossible, but there is space for a button mic. Otherwise I highly recommend.

Just find the chin strap a bit far back and quite fiddly to do up
