Carbon Fiber Helmet

RE: Carbon Fiber Helmet
These helmets are great and the company is even better. I ordered a black candy DOT helmet a month ago. It arrived a few days later to my surprise. However, I had an issue with the rings on the straps being in a location that just dug into my jawbone. It was so uncomfortable that I couldn't even wear the helmet. I emailed the company back and asked if they could shorten the v-straps and give me a double d-ring setup instead of the quick release. They said no problem just send it back and we'll take care of it free of charge. So I sent it back and a few days later the new helmet arrived, quick shipping yet again! This time the helmet was a little better as far as comfort but there were still some problems. (I guess I have an odd head or something) I emailed them back again and asked if they could make some more modificattions for me including strap length and going back to the quick release. Again they said no problem just send it back. So I sent it back for the 2nd time. I just received it back again (for the 3rd time) and this time it fits perfectly.
I don't know if there is another company out there who would not only have the patience to do this but also the WILLINGNESS...and all free of charge as well. I would not hesitate to buy another helmet from them again.

RE: Carbon Fiber Helmet
I am thinking about stepping up and buying one of their half-helmets, but wanted to get your opinions on adding the ear flaps. I am a new rider, so I really don't have good open road experience yet with or without flaps. I prefer the look without the flaps, but if that makes for an uncomfortable highway ride, I might have to sacrifice the look.
Do they happen to make a version where the flaps are removable?
Thanks for the input.

The wind is loud at highway speeds. I didn't order the ear flaps, but I will probably start using some ear plugs. Would be interesting to know if the flaps are removable. Give them a call and see.. 1-800-300-9813

Well received mine today on the left coast. Took about 10 days to ship out here. I just went for the carbon fiber finish. Looks pretty good.
All i can say is WOW! awesome fit and finish. And the thing looks sweet on my big ole' noggin. These things are super light too. Only the non-Dot are lighter in my experience.
Dang, now I'm gonna have to look for good goggles for it, or try some different glasses.

ORDERING SUGGESTION: If like me you find your head measurement falls right in between two different sizes go for the larger size.
I didn't and the large was just a hair too small. I had to pay to ship back to Florida from Cali but they are paying for replacement shipping which is cool.
