One of the reasons I like the Bell Sport EV. It has better visability than all my street helmets. Almost as good as a MX helmet.

I don't have $750 to spend on multiple helmets and don't really want one of the $45 SM helmets at the local department store.

That said, if SA won't work I will rethink getting an SA helmet and just get a SM for now. Though for what I ride I think SA would be fine.
