Weight and distribution of impact force are remarkable, but that's all. Wouldn't recommend the helmet at all. 5 Days wearing it and the helmet fell apart. The rear plastic straps came out of the sockets, a large chunk of styrofoam literally fell out of the plastic moulding and the surface is dented all over the place. What is the use of a helmet if you cannot put it on the outside of your backpack without fearing it will break!Worst helmet I ever had !
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this product to a friend.
