IXS HX444 Angle Helmet Black Red Silver

In theory this should be an excellent helmet but I did notice subsequently it was a little bit tight for the sizing which you can feel after about 40 minutes. This really only became obvious after a number of trips. Also that the helmet was quite noisy from the start. . The visor ratchet when just cracked open, opens more than my previous helmet which adds a lot to the noise. When going slowly in the town today when it was raining, the visor opened a crack, it let the rain in onto the inside of the visor. This is very disappointing in that the faults only appeared subsequently after the helmet had been used rather than initially trying it on. As I have written the review the rating has gone down from good down to bad, having considered the way it is. On reflection I don't think it's of merchantable quality, principally because what it appears to offer isn't delivered because of its intrinsic faults.
