The helmet is probably the lightest full-face helmet on the market, but at the same time it is ventilated like its cross-country brothers. Even the chin guard has a large ventilation opening at the front. This not only blows fresh air into your mouth, but also looks good (if you like the Darth Vader look). Another difference to conventional full-face helmets: the "Deviant" is slightly higher at the back and has a clever ratchet system for adjustment. This means that the helmet sits snugly on the head and doesn't wobble a millimetre. The "Deviant" is available in black or white. If you want it cheaper, go for the 90 gram heavier model below, but without carbon reinforcement. Oh yes: the "Deviant" is so stable that it is approved for downhill racing.
Conclusion: Full sight for all. This is not just a marketing slogan for the "Deviant". It is lightweight, well ventilated and fits like a glove.
