Very impressive helmet
This helmet was just what I was looking for. It is probably the most comfortable bicycle helmet that I've ever bought. It fits just right and I like how the tinted visor comes down at the right spot on my face to where it does not impede my vision at all. It is lightweight yet rugged and has a nice finish. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality bike helmet.

Comfort
Every other xl sized . Mind u full helmets hurt my headThis one fits comfortably. Light weight shade works easily. With the ear pads in even rode in 38° f. WeatherSo have a wind shield. Quality seems good. with out the ear pads the wind is noisy. Less with them installed but not quiet. Vents on a hot day so the jobExcellent value

Perfect and good value for money
Was nervous purchasing this helmet as we rise in extreme hot temperatures here in the Middle East, however it was comfortable and the top vent was helpful. The sunshade is also well made and didn’t need to where sun glasses. Overall highly recommended

Nice looking and comfortable but a bit heavy
Very nice looking helmet and the black flag graphic is excellent. Unfortunately, that is offset by the large "LS2" logo right in the front center. (A 3" x 5" sample of 3M Deep Matte Black vinyl will cover the logo nicely..)Feels good and fits my somewhat oval head well although I am on the border between L and XL and went down to the L based on past experience. I was expecting more cooling from the vent but could barely tell it was open, even when standing on the floorboards with my head well above the windshield. Maybe the cooling will be more noticeable when it's not 90 degrees outside. On the plus side, I had no significant buffeting even when purposely putting my head into the wind stream.The movable visor comes very close to my glasses and I see myself only using it just partly down to help when the sun is just below the peak (be sure to remove protective film for clarity).At 40 ounces (actual weight), it's one of the heaviest half-helmets I own. It is well balanced but still heavy. Also, is fairly large but doesn't really cause a "mushroom head" appearance.Overall, a good helmet.

great helmet
I bought this helmet to replace a Scorpion EXO C110 which was a good helmet and one that I had purchased several times before. On a whim I decided to try a new model and manufacturer and I am so glad I did. This helmet fits perfectly- at least for my head shape- feels a bit lighter and offers a buckle fastener. With the Scorpion I would set the head strap and then squeeze my head into the helmet so I would not have to mess with the strap every time. The drop down visor system and removable liner are features shared by both helmets- I prefer the Scorpion visor-the LS2 has an edge on the bottom of the visor which is noticeable and somewhat distracting. Overall a very nice helmet and for me an improvement over my Scorpions.

BETTER THAN BELL
Attention riders, LS2...far better quality than Bell junk. I ordered a BELL first.... opened the box took out the helmet, removed the ear covers and the SNAP BROKE...15 SECONDS INTO OWNERSHIP. the bell head liner was also cheap.LS2 Has 10x rides great feel, and high quality liner.

Good but could stand some improvement
Pros first!1) Sizing according to the advertised sizing chart is pretty good. I measured 23 1/4 inches, 59 cm, the large size fit great with a skull cap on. Keep in mind this is designed for an intermediate oval shaped head, so your mileage may vary.2) The buckle seems to be of good quality metal that works flawlessly. Albeit, the adjustment strap seems too long so there’s a lot to tuck out of the way. Or maybe, at maybe my face isn’t Lurch like enough?3) Interior padding seems comfortable enough and not as cheap as many helmets in this price range.4) The top vent, although unsightly IMHO, DOES work surprisingly well. Living in a Southern State where today’s August Heat index got up to 112 degrees, I could actually feel the air channeling in the top. Although the airflow hitting individual riders may vary.5) It does come with plugs to fill in the holes if you decide to remove the brim. More on the brim in cons later!6) The drop down sunvisor, also more on this in Cons, is a lot darker than expected. Vampires or basement dwelling commandos will love it.7) It’s high cut or shallow cut enough I don’t need to tuck in my ears. Sounds weird I know! My HJC comes down so low I gotta tuck my ears under the helmet.Cons.1) The brim is REALLY flimsy!!! Compared to my HJC Cruiser helmet or Vega Warrior is seems horribly cheap. If you’re into the beanie look and wanna take the brim off you’re in luck because the plugs the fill in the holes are included.2) I wear prescription glasses so I like having a helmet with a drop down sunvisor. Here I have 3 issues.A) Again compared to my HJC Cruiser and Vega Warrior, the visor on the LS2 comes awfully close to my prescription glasses. Compared to the HJC I can see how it helps eliminating the mushroom head look. But the mushroom head appearance is about the same on the LS2 and the Vega without the Vega being so close to my prescription glasses.B) The LS2 visor does not lock in multiple or in the down position! It only locks in the up position. Maybe it’s just me but I like the tactile feel that it’s locked in placeC) The LS2 needs to be worn very forward on your head for the visor to cover most of your field of vision. Even then there’s a sizable gap around my nose that’s kinda of distracting.Lastly, looking at pics on Amazon, I couldn’t see a difference between black and matte black. I’m not picky so I ordered black since it said I’d get it several days sooner. Not sure how a matte black could be any more matte that what I received.All in all, the quality seems good but lots of room for improvement. TBH, if you’re on the lower end of the elite buyer scale, like me, and looking for a decent helmet to CYA with the law, buy the Vega Warrior.

Fantastic Fit
Make sure you measure your head because it fits to the measurements. I would give it a 4 and half stars because of the visor build into it. The visor does not go down as far as I would like it to go to protect my eyes but I wear glasses anyway so I do use it. But it is something to think about if that is why you are buying this helmet. Other wise the fit and the padding in it are great. It does not move on my head and feels great.
