So, I've now ridden about 450 miles with this helmet, and it is a bit heavy and although fairly well-ventilated, it tends to run hot. I like it for now, but am not sure I'd be able to wear it when the temp gets in the upper 80s or higher. The heat problem doesn't seem to be anywhere as bad as the descriptions I've heard of for the Bontragers and Koroyds (sp?), I suspect that gel stuff would be much worse.

I paid $35 for it on clearance, btw, so even if it's one I have to swap out from time to time, I still feel good about the deal.
