    I really like the idea of the internal drop down tinted shield, but why aren't any of them DOT approved?
    My guess would be because the slot that the shield retracts into, prevents the interior styrofoam liner from bonding to the exterior shell for much of the top/frontal area of the helmet, thereby making it a weaker design(?).

    Yea, true. Maybe it's Snell I'm thinking of that won't certify the internal retractable visor designs.

    could be that the inner visor is just one more thing that can get crushed into your face..
