A helmet comes down to the standard and the internals, not the looks. The Hornet ADV meeting ECE 22.06 and getting its interior reworked is genuinely good news for anyone who wears one for long stretches. On an adventure helmet, the feel really changes depending on how the visor and shield operate, so I want to try one on myself and check that too. What matters most is whether the substance actually justifies the £529.99 price tag.
