Looks very GCSE DT project, I wonder if they're not showing proper photos because of the looks rather than to hype it...

Interesting ... so a neck guard was present in the older helmets and was removed in the newer ones until Phil's incident ??

I find that offensive as a GCSE student!

I'll reserve judgement until I see a front quarter image. I like the triangular profile used in the grill. Looks a bit more sophisticated than the usual round rod.

Different angles and some bold claims in this photo... Under 600g? That might get some people interested despite the looks.

I'm hoping the design changes slightly - slightly like the Masuris did when they was first released with the new design
