Its helmet buying time again ( after 8 years owning an arioh ) and I am a bit stuck on a few points
1- I cannot go above R6000 , there simply isn't any more money available - a cheaper option would be better , my gloves have also worn out .
2 - would like a helmet with a removable peak so I can take it off when doing long highway sections .
3 - I see some helmets come with drop down sunglasses - that would be great - actually essential
4 - Must have a visor and also be able to use MX goggles - best off both worlds
5 - big vision area
6 - be able to accommodate some kind of helmet speakers
Is there such a holly grail helmet that meets all these criteria ?
I have looked at the Nolan N44 trilogy and that seems the bomb , even better that I could remove the chin part for speaking to the world out there ( ridding with an open face helmet slowly is my best especially in rural areas where I need to ask directions ) but don't even know if you can get these helmets in South Africa https://www.nolan-usa.com/categories/helmets/crossover.html
