Bell Super 2 or...

I'm looking for a helmet along the lines of the Super 2, decent head coverage and the integrated light/camera mount. Any others I should consider?

I really like my Scott Stego...fits me well.  Haven't had to use it yet thankfully.

I saw the Maya. Does the visor lock solidly in place? Seems like a bad spot to hang a light or gopro.

I have a Bell Super and I really like it for the additional coverage, but it is noticeably hotter than other helmets I have.

I have the bell super 2 with mips.  I love it.  Great head coverage and it is very comfortable to wear.  I would buy it again

Shearing the shaft member after a hard ride is acceptable in my book.

Love mine. Even had a sweet little CNC light mount for my magic-shine made for it.

Yeah, I saw yours Wednesday night. I just wanted to bite your style. 

Also, I picked up a light with a gopro mount last night. Hopefully I can use that at Beatty this fall.

My Super 2R mips should arrive tomorrow. I'm glad to hear you guys like yours. Obviously time will tell but it sounds like I made the right decision.

I really like my Bell Super 2r mips.  I've been riding full face for the past few weeks.  If you want the full face option, go with the Bell.   

If not....check out the new Giro Feature with MIPS.  I wore the standard Giro feature for quite a while.  Much much lighter than the Bell Super which was nice.  Plenty of room for a GoPro mount too...I used the standard stick back mount.

Just Bought a Giro Feature with Mips and it is awesome! It is claimed to be a bit hot, but coming from an XC helmet I have not noticed any increased heat. I sweat a ton and it keeps me very cool Cool oh and vented .  $95 is full retail but I'm sure they will go on sale soon because of the new Giro Montaro Mips coming on scene in Fall 2015
