[QUOTE="sapest, post: 1413367, member: 29340"] This of course deals with the angle of the helmet screen relative to your head position, as well as the angle of the rear of the helmet relative to your riding position. I am not sure how to answer this. Maybe this helps. I wear glasses, and this helmet is tighter all around than the Schuberth, which I presumed had to do with the shell size, as Shoei has ?5? to Schuberths ?3? The visor clears my glasses no problem, but the top of the visor opening is much closer to the top of my glasses. I dont really know what to say about the rr angle, the back of the helmet never hits my jacket collar when riding. Rain drips were worse with the Schuberth, more rounded? One thing about the general Shoei aerodynamics; when its raining, I often sit upright to get my helmet more fully into the wind and turn my head a bit to use the airflow to blow the rain off the visor. The Shoei shape is longer frt to rr, and if I catch a good wind gust, I will get a good push, something the ?rounder? Schuberth didnt do. Not sure I have answered your concerns. . . . . -Steve [/QUOTE]
