1. Make: Vega
2. Model: Summit XPV
3. Approximate price paid: $130
4. Approximate age of helmet (in months): 10
PROS: Decent ventilation, wide range of colors, easy interchangeable faceshield, less expensive then most flip-ups.
CONS: On the heavy side, plastic mechanical parts break easily/has flimsy feel.
They just came out with a Summit II so perhaps there is some improvement. Don't get me wrong--it's a sturdy helmet, the flipup mechanism seems cheap.
