It’s lovely as a collector’s item and I very occasionally wear it for short rides on my cruiser.

The fit is not great and I had to send the first one that I ordered back to get the next size up as I was between sizes.

The problem is the lack of cranial adjustment. It’s essentially a hard pot that sits on your head. The magnetic clasp feature for the strap is a gimmick and quite fiddly to operate.

Then there’s the issue with ventilation. There’s little to no ventilation whilst riding.

So 10/10 for aesthetics and 2/10 as a practical cycling helmet from me.
Thanks for the info
