had the evoline for a year now, so heres an update;
everything said about it so far still holds true,
the lining is standing up very well and still fits and doesnt smell,
the finish is still good (i got the matt rubbery black one)
the chinbar mechanism works perfectly still
the anti scratch+misting visor still works perfectly
the only thing i dont like about it is the visor mechanism and the way the visor attaches to the hinges, its pants.
it is extremely stiff to open because the opening knob presses the visor against the rubber sealing strip around the inside. it is much easier to open if you simply push it up from the bottom like a normal helmet but if you do that, the way the visor attaches to the mechanism comes loose and you risk losing the expensive visor down the road. i have caught mine several times.
this a bit cheap and nasty on a helmet that cost over £200 so shark should sort the design out, no reason why a perfectly normal mechanism wouldnt fit in there.
