Comparable lids. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great looking & fitting helmet plenty airy, but the finish is really not what I was used to from TLD. I have a D3 Carbon for DH and the construction is poles part.
The stages finish, particularly the glue around the edges is poor and messy, they rubber caps that cover the buckle mounts internally are a mess. At that price point I expect far better construction quality.
And the reviews bear this out, I just wish I’d known I was getting one as a present, as I’d have advised against it.
Interesting – are you comparing it to other comparable full faces or traditional DH lids?
I’m looking for an enduro full face, a mate that works in a shop recommended the Stage despite him stocking the Fox and Specialized equivalent.
