Picked up my new Shoie Qwest today and first impressions are focing good.
Its quieter than the AGV S4 but not what i would call Quiet. but very good all the same.
Comfort is very very good. the inner is soft but firm and grips well. nice and light as well, its prob only a few grams lighter than the agv but feels a lot more.
it has a wind guard for the chin area that helps and its the warmest helm i have owned for the neck/chin area.
may need to lose it in the summer though lol.
The pinloc is very good, its my first pinloc and i will use them again if they last well. even at traffic lights i could keep the visor closed and not mist up. and thats with all the helm vents closed. fantastic.
seems to have less buffeting than the AGV S4 as well but its hard to tell untill i ride in diff wind conditions.
the 1 thing i did find a little worse than the AGV was rain clearing from the visor.
in light rain it just didnt clear, in heavyer rain it was fine. its something i will have to keep an eye on.
i poped to a local race track and tested it up to 140 with no feeling like it was trying to lift off or pull and press anywhere.
overall i will say 9/10 on quality but a little pricey for me (most i have ever spent on a helm even though i know its not a "Expensive" helm as such.
But i can see the diff in quality and finish compaired to the likes of the AGV S4 and the caberg
a good purchase that im happy with so far.
