JP Atlantic City,  NJ Very Good for the Price The biggest problem is that the visor and the helmet don’t play well together. The visor does not create a perfect seal with the helmet so you will have air coming in and hitting your eyes. This is a problem when its cold b/c cold air tends to make your eyes water a lot more. In warmer months, it’s not bad. The second problem with the visor/helmet relationship is how quickly the helmet scuffs the visor. From opening and closing the visor, the helmet has made brush marks all along the top of the visor. About an inch of brush marks that run all along the top of the visor, on the inside of the visor. Other than that, the chin-strap material isn’t as nice/comfortable as other helmets I’ve worn (Shoei), and the breath guard stinks of plastic (it can be removed though). No vents up top but there are vents in chin guard. On the plus side: $50 sale price, Snell & DOT approved, removable liner for easy cleaning, able to put my glasses on/off while wearing helmet. I bought the size that is one higher than the size chart recommends for me, and it is snug but comfortable. I recommend this helmet. Great bang for the buck. Note that it has a flat black (not glossy) type of look/finish.

edison allen albany,  GA KBC Tarmac Radiation helmet Helmet is nice, the sizing is a little smaller than normal. The finish is great but it chips easy from small pebbles from the road. Overall, love the helmet, looks awesome with the silver face shield.

David Austin,  TX Good Helmet, Great Deal I bought this helmet to replace my over used "beater" day-to-day helmet. It's more than worth the price I paid for it. The fit is good. The amount of airflow is great, but that means that there is also a lot of noise. Wear this with earplugs or ear buds. There are no top vents. The breath deflector hits up against my nose, but it's not uncomfortable. The padding is generous and comfortable. .

jason tuscaloosa,  AL Great helmet, comfortable and good price Helmet is light and comfortable. Does not fog up which is a huge plus. Only downside is that I didn't notice the two skulls on the front when I purchased. Skull and crossbones doesn't go that well with my little red scooter, but it does protect my head!

Mike Connell Pittsburgh,  PA Great price The helmet interior seems to be oblong shaped, which works for me. It's a bit of a tight fit, but I had no real discomfort. My longest ride was 35 minutes so far. I have a little trouble putting my glasses on while wearing it, but I can do it. I haven't yet tried to wear my fitover sunglasses over my glasses yet. I wonder if the helmet will accommodate them. The graphics are a little more gray-blue than the website pictures, and a bit "busier" in person than I was expecting. I usually like a more plain helmet, but at this cost (49.99), I can't complain. The radioactivity graphic looks very good and I got a lot of compliments on it. It seems to have no reflectivity, so I'll probably buy some 3M stickers for night riding. Overall, I'm pleased with my purchase.

Sheldon Toronto,  ON A Great Deal For the price this is an impressive purchase. The fit is excellent. The helmet is very comfortable. I have only worn it a few times but right now would give it a solid A for performance on all counts.
