    That's an interesting looking helmet, can you feel the weight when its over the back?

    I think I may just stick with what I have until I build a bigger fund, think a helmet the one thing I should always invest more into really and £100 isnt enough

    I wasn't aware of the weight but I didn't ride in it.

    It used to be difficult to find a Roof helmet that fitted. The chin piece was far too close to the chin! Unless you were an extra from Deliverance the chin piece wouldn't even fold down.

    The Desmo is a new model and I had no problems with the chin piece but I don't know about the V8. Definitely worth trying one before splashing the cash.

    I think you need to to find a V8 as they may have changed that design so it fits "normal" people :)
