Dual Sport Helmet- Gmax 11D

[Akunin]

I picked up the Gmax 11D DS helmet a few months ago and for the $95 I paid for it I couldn't be happier.

The ventilation is great! The last few months were the hottest of the year of course and this helmet did a great job keeping the melon cool. The face shield moves up out of the way under the visor... completely! I was looking at the MSR DS helmet and it goes up 3/4 the way the Gmax does so it was a deciding factor why I went with the 11D instead, nothing blocking my view!

The only drawback I've had so far is that it is kinda loud compared to other helmets I've had before. I think this is due in part of the ventilation design but a very minor drawback, personally I think its actually pretty nice to hear more around when in traffic.
