My son was wearing an AFX-50 last year when a car ran a red light and hit him on his scooter. He suffered 2 broken legs, one from the cars bumper the other when he landed 40' away. He had an armored coat on, so just bruises on arms and shoulder. He didn't think he had even hit his head. His helmet had a 4" crack in the crown area. No helmet would have performed better no matter what the cost or design.
I prefer to be comfortable and have great vision, this helmet is well balanced and very versitale. I shelved a HJC Symax2 to use this helmet. It felt heavier and ventilation was not as good, fogged up in cold. Now, I will say after I changed windshields it would have been better, but I still like the AFX-50 better.
