Not sure I'd feel 100% with this idea I dont even like the ratchet type strap ones...
Double D for me all the way...
There was a helmet all the rage in F1 back in the '70's GPA IIRC that was strapless...

Re: Hmmm Would you ?
Helmet is designed to keep integrity after crash. And this one has crack incorporated all over head. I dont believe it.
Re: Hmmm Would you ?
dont think id be wanting that protecting my head.
the older i get,the faster i was 

Re: Hmmm Would you ?
Yeah, seems like a good idea that could be a bad idea. id want to see it save about 100 other crash dummies first.
Re: Hmmm Would you ?
No, deffinately not for me, why would you put a weak spot in the most important part of the shell.
I think the designers of that one need to have a word with Mr Arai.

Re: Hmmm Would you ?
I've got to agree. Convenience over safety not a good idea. Besides what's so difficult with putting a helmet on over your head. Quick release cheek pads are good idea like Arai do if they thinking easier for emergency services to remove but I can't see any other benefit with what they have designed here.

Re: Hmmm Would you ?
Theoretically its a good idea in that it provides a more complete fit over your entire scone, but yeah, id have to see some testing. I can see it actually being a problem for emergency crews. Instead of just cutting a strap, they have to figure out how to open a wierd helmet without instructions that is possibly munted beyond opening normally unless it hasnt already on impact.
Could be wrong tho, could be brilliant

Re: Hmmm Would you ?
I’m sure it’s been tested & the same as any other design?!
Would I have one........ the juries out!!

Re: Hmmm Would you ?
If i was in the market for a $900aud helmet id definitely probably look into it and try one on for size and then probably get a normal one. But it would be a shame to see someones innovation, hard work and investment go down the tubes if its a good product. All other speculative criticisms aside, I'd imagine you would want to keep your hair not much longer than a buzzcut and have small ears.
