Caberg Avalon - Giga Matt Black / Fluo Yellow / Fluo Red

I don't really have much to compare it to as this is my first full face helmet after passing my CBT, but having tried many on in-shop at SBS (at every price point) this was the one that fit me best. I was a tad alarmed at first how tight it was on my cheeks, but the assistant told me it needed to be that way and over time it would mould itself to me and get comfier (which it has). and this took at least 20hrs to achieve. It's a smart helmet, i feel it would offer great protection if the unthinkable happened, and as far as wind noise goes i expected that anyway. I have added a pinlock after i got really steamed up one morning, and since then it's been fine. I would consider buying another next time if needed, but would at least try on other models so i knew how different they are, but that's mainly for curiosity and no reflection of this helmet. Last thing i would say to anyone (out of my 'vast experience' lol) is that IMHO you need to try helmets on before you buy, dont just pick one off the internet, as some of the size XL's wouldnt even fit over my head

Great helmet. A little windier and noisier than the Shark S900 which was my previous helmet but the comfort and visibility is fine.

The sun visor is annoying tho as you can see the nose cutout in the blur of the corner of your eye.

I'd rather have just bought another Shark S900 I think.

For the money, this is proving to be a very good helmet. It fits well, is relatively light weight and looks good. The visor mechanism seems unecessarily fiddly but after some practice isn't too bad.
For me, the most important thing is that the fit suits. I'm a size medium and find it equivelant to my old "small medium" AGV K-5, or how HJC helmets used to fit in a medium a few years ago.
I bought the fog city (pinlock equivalent) insert with the helmet and would recommend that too.

The helmet is comfortable, fits me well and peripheral vision is very good, not had chance to use internal sun visor yet. NO SUN! There is a lot of wind noise from about 30mph that I dont get with my Scorpion Helmet. This is the only flaw. Good value though.

Nice helmet and cool design.
