Now many will know I post on the MHL thread against the crackpot rule. But the law's the law and I have been wearing a helmet since long before it anyway. So helmet use is my choice as I am a fairly high mileage rider and also do a bit of MTB trail riding. This S3 is a great helmet!
Riding yesterday in 37 degrees, doing 60kms through the hills of South Gippsland, I was certainly hot enough, and sweaty. But that was the result of the conditions. What I did not have at all was any sort of sweaty brow or sweat running down into the eyes (which every other helmet I've used has done in similar conditions). The fit system is very comfortable and easy to adjust, and the flow-through ventilation is exceptional - great deep channels in the helmet keep the air rushing through. At the brow the pad is separate from the helmet and allows air to pass through, which I guess is helping to evaporate the sweat more rapidly and prevents the pad becoming sodden and dripping. Whatever the action is, on a 37 degree day it worked very well - top marks
