Pros: Very reasonable price and excellent build quality - light and strong with no flex in the face guard area. Removable Cool Max-type liner is a premium feature. Venting is above average for any helmet at this price with a very effective mouth vent, top vents and visor-mounted 'brow' vents that keep air coming in but not right on your face.
Cons: Although the visor has only one little 'edge' piece for opening, it isn't that hard using your thumb with your hand pressed against the front. Some complain but I can pop it open just fine - a $300 Shoei I saw has the same design! The chin strap is a little aft of the ideal spot but a slightly looser tension takes care of it without compromise to safety.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: As my very first full face, the Sparx Corsa was a perfect fit - snug but comfy. I chose the same size as my open face (L), and it fit correctly.
A top notch helmet for anyone on a budget - the venting alone makes me glad I picked this one. Love the Italian look of the Corsa red model. With Sparx's accident replacement policy you really can't go wrong.
