Has Anyone Tried This "Rocket" Helmet

IMHO, the C3 represents the state-of-the-art in flip-up lids. For the reasons I stated before, though, much as I'd love to avail myself of a modular's comfort advantages, I will not compromise my coconut's safety to anything less than the most bulletproof helmet design available, i.e., a solid fullface.

Having suffered two accidents over the past 40 months where my bike was totaled and I was not, I have good justification for standing pat!
 
Looks like a nice compromise between a full face and a flip up. WOW, Nolan has gotten pricey since they 1st came on the market. I 1st heard of them 15yrs ago when I got my 1st flip-up, they were the least expensive decent helmet back then. I guess they got bigger, better and more full of themselvs. lol
It almost looks retro from the days of the full plexiglass bubble snap-on for 3/4 helmets back in the 70's. I like it.
 
The only issue I've had with Schuberth is that they become loose and floppy with the mechanism that allows the helmet to be ridden with the chin bar up. The face shield also suffers this same problem.
 
Phil, where'd you find it for 230? That's a steal!
 
Hibernate for a day and look what happens. That Nolan N43 is quite enticing, and Modular is my only way to go. I feel very secure in my N102, but don't wear it much. Got a cheapie beater Hawk I use and will check the N43 when I can. Like the Rocket color and design but not the solid aspect with glasses. Ear plugs work for noise, stick an earphone with it or helmet speakers and smile all day long. Not recommending it however, just an observation.
