Default Which Comtronics Helmet?

What helmet is better, The standard or pro? Which muffs, Flip up or Not? What do you guys like? I have the Heli-pro with Gentex shield. I don't like the shield , wind gets up under it. I could have saved alot of money. Need to make a decision on second helmet. I thought I'd check with you guys before I call Comtronics. Thanks

Default Re:Which Comtronics Helmet?

Chris,

I think it is a matter of preference. I like the "Ultra-Pro Standard" with the flip out muffs. There are times when it's nice to be able to pull them out. Just don't get one that's too big for you. I made a mistake with my first helmet. Since my head size is on the borderline between medium and large, I opted to get the large. I sent it to Bruce just last week to have a medium insert installed in it.
