This is a steal of a deal, one of the best values I've found on the helmet market. The helmet has a great fit and is super warm. I have yet to be disappointed by any Giro products. The vents and ear flaps are great features. These are the softest and most comfortable ear flaps yet. I'm impressed with the design of the vents and the option to open and close them (quite an upgrade from the vents you had to plug). I'm a little worried about the vent closure, it seems a little cheap and feels easy to break, especially since being out in the cold tends to make things more brittle. Again, excellent value.
