Is this safe?

MOMO Design Devil Helmet

MOMO Design's Devil Helmet doesn't just protect your dome it hides it under one of the sleekest helmet designs we've ever seen. The Devil Helmet features a removable chinguard, antifog visor, and venting that control the interior climate of the helmet that is lined with a special hypoallergenic material. [$334]

Saw this at Motomail yesterday Don't know about you but 'removable chin guard' sounds like 'will come off at a moments notice, usually in contact with asphalt'. Still, looks interesting. Have yet to try one on though.

Interesting. Momo helmets are usually open-face aren't they? So one with any kind of chin guard is probably an improvement. Haven't seen this particular model before.

thats why i dont trust flip face, plus they ugly but each to their own!

but surely that would pass all safety standards etc so it must be safe?
not for me though, i like a solid full face esp after my last bin resulting in me sliding on my stomach down the road.

Being from momo it must be pretty safe. I would imagine only car racers would buy such a thing. Especially with the cooling properties. Its supposed to get hot as hell in a v8 supercar, so who knows?
