Helmet reviews - noise?

Thinking I'd like to have a different helmet for long rides...
Still want a modular though.

I've got a Vega Summit SVX (sp) seems like they could have done better job of sealing the faceshield - can hear diff if I put my hand over the hinge, not theflipup though.

I find the "which helmet to buy" thing to be tough. A lot of helmets are not available to me locally and I'm not sure I want to buy a helmet over the internet when I'd really like to try them first.

Also, I'm wondering if any of my local dealers would let me out of the store with a helmet to see how it feels on the highway.

Gronk and Bob here is a website that was posted on the site earlier. These guys do a pretty good review of all different styles and brands of helmets.

I read the review on my HJC IS-Max and if it scores as one of the quietest modular helmets I would sure not want to wear a worse one. The noise from this thing is awful.

These don't flip, but they are very quiet and solid. The Wife and I both have 'em, and have many thousand miles anda few goodtours on them. FYI

Read through the "search" on this - why a thumbsdown for Nolan?

Cyclegear has this one on sale
