The chin straps are super comfortable as they're a leatherette material. I got the middle level model "mojito".
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to go to my LBS to double-check what they've got in stock before ordering anything sight unseen (in real life).

By the way, there's also the Scott Arx Plus at the same price and without the problematic point. Consumer Reports considers this one of the best helmets on the market from a safety perspective.
The point at the back is a little odd to me as well, and one reason why I'm also considering the POC. I'll look into the Scott, as well.

I will keep that in mind as well. Thanks!
