I bought one of these in red (why would anybody NOT buy the brightest color available?):

It's great. Decent coverage, easily-removed visor for road and mtb use, very cool, good sweat management, and a good, non-clunky MIPS system integration.
Downsides: The front straps sit a bit further forward than most helmets, which I noticed for about 3 minutes.
I typically wear a helmet with more coverage on most real mtb rides (beloved Bontrager Rally) but this will be great for our easy local trail system, AND HOT SUMMER DAYS!
