I have this helmet and the vents might as well not have been installed because this helmet is HOT!!!!. The side vision is terrible and in my opinion unsafe. The cheek pump is nice but not needed. The inner sun visor in my opinion is not dark enough.
The outer shield is AMAZING! never foggs up and is super crystel clear. I only clean it with water and it comes very clean. It is snell approved so thats a plus. I'm going back to an Arai..you pay for quality I guess
Lol yeah when I looked at a review for this when they showed the Pump I thought, Gee now all it needs is a release button. and Then it showed the release button and the first thing that I thought of was a Reebok Pump.
I own a pair of Reebok Pumps :P But I can tell you that the pump on this looks like it works 3x better than the one on my shoe does.
This or the Exo-700 will probably be my helmet of choice if it fits correctly later on when I get a bike. Otherwise I'll look at Arai Helmets.
nice review man, I read about some issues with the speedview sunvisor about not being low enough to cover the sun from the horizon and some complains about it being kinda noisy.
What do you think after having the helmet for a while?
The visor works pretty well for me. I haven't used it during the winter at all though where the sun angles are brutally low at dawn and dusk, but I would imagine that it would work as well as a pair of sunglasses but not as well as a full tinted visor. The noise is a little more noticeable than say an Arai, but much less than a KBC or HJC. Hope this helps.

Had this helmet for over 2 years now and have ridden about 16,000 miles in it. Here's what I can say about it after 2 years of daily use...
Airflow is poor.
Vents on top broke
Cheakpads work as advertised.
Internal visor is great and I use it a ton. Will make sure all my future helmets have one.
I read the helmet is very heavy, but when wearing it, I don't notice. It's quite comfortable and doesn't feel heavy.
Despite the poor airflow, I would still get one again.
