Back door & strapless.

It needs an internal visor option.

If it passes the AUS/NZ standard, it'll meet the ECE standard to. The Oz standard is currently being sorted between the individual states here for consistency, the ECE is now the accepted standard.

In emergency circumstances, for neck protection, it needs a screwdriver to remove the helmet.

Cost to follow....

S'pose the first thing to take your eye Steve, is the ability to more easily remove the helmet from a road trauma victim.

Does a well fitted strap injure riders?

It would be nice if it was really quiet.

Not that I'm aware of. This helmet requires know-how and a flat screwdriver to undo 2 lateral screws to remove it for airway access. The front is removed forwards and down towards the chest.

Garnet, they claim quiet but don't most of them!

Is the purpose of the helmet design to aid in such a removal?

I'd be curious to see how they do the hinge. That, and the catch mechanisms are the weak links... (video doesn't work in USA)

Presumably, plus it seems to lend itself to the strapless feature.

Getting cloudy now. Does one take the helmet off on arrival at the pub, with a screwdriver?

Only by licensed rescue personnel.
