Thought about Lazer Vento, Kask Utopia and then i noted new Catlike Whisper is soon out.
Looks like they stole a designer from POC to do the front but then copied the back off of a Vanquish.

just got a HJC Furion 2.0 from Lordgun shipped to USA. its a really nice helmet. probably not as safe as teh dual layer spherical bell/giro, but it's better quality than the Kask Utopia for sure. good fit, slightly rounder than Utopia. Doesn't look as goofy. VERY light. really really impressed.

I'm here to help you because I rode this helmet for a year before realizing you can adjust the helmet cradle by unclipping it and moving it in the helmet. You are welcome. That was apparently a secret hjc didn't want anyone to know.

Because the helmet automatically sets tension in the cradle, it has three preset holes front to back for larger tuning.

Yeah I'll probably wait for a test data too before pulling the trigger.

So that's why I was able to get such a deal on this ARO5. I really like the look and fit after doing some modifications. How aero is it compared to the competition?
