Default Interesting "Open Face"?

Kinda looks like a HALO jump helmet... and then there's the typical old school driving lid. From- Guess who? Brembo

Thats pretty cool! Reminds me of those Roof helmets from a few years ago. Whatever happened to Roof? Did they go under?

Fold-up or removable chinplate?

I can't ride without a full face, but I'd rock a fold-up modular for street duty.

Not sure... But the one with the "beak" looks to have a modular style release button on the side (red dot).

Still there.

Rez was the one importing them, but did not do so for long.

Roof just got too damn expensive IMO.

I wanted one really bad but didn't want to fork out that much cash

Nexx also imports into the US now from Portugal and looks like it has some interesting half face, modular and full face helmets. The modular has a flip-up section but still has the rigid chin protector in place.
