Back on the hunt. Tried the SY- and it still makes my neck and back hurt.

Need something lighter.

Truth. While it's the most expensive helmet I own, it's also the best helmet I own. One ride with it and you will quickly realize that it is worth every penny.

I bought it right before my 43 hour cross country trip from Florida to California, and if I didn't like it before that trip, I loved it after.

Don't waste your time with anything else. If you want a modular helmet and all the features it offers, you will eventually end up with a Schuberth, so you might as well start there.
