I've never trusted these flip up types....too scared they flip up in an accident
But seriously 3b, they have to pass some pretty vigorous tests. I think it's rare they come open in a crash. They do tend to be a bit noisyer than closed lids though.

I know everyone slates the sharp testing, my old flip up (HJC IS max i think) opened 40% of the time in crashes
I have gone back to full face, just feels better built to me
Edit: found it, stayed shut 40% not opened
