Poor quality, not worth the money September 8, 2009

Got this helmet for the use in track days. This is the cheapest Snell 05 helmet I could find at that time. (cost $300 at that time)
Very disappointed with the poor workmanship. This is one of the worst $300 I spent.
Following are the reasons:
1) The visor edges are so rough that I could get a cut from it, they didn't bother to make it smooth or have a better mold from the beginning.
2) Only 2 adjustable vent holes above the visor, most helmets have one in front of the mouth too.
3) The helmet inside smell so bad, the foam and plastic is outgasing for more than 2 years and it's still smelling as bad now as when its new.
4) The bottom rim of the helmet is surrounded by a piece of rubber rim looks like some thing off the shelf from Walmart.
5) All the vent holes edges are so rough, they just cut open the vent holes, didn't bother to smoothen the edges at all.
6) Visor retaining mechanism is very rough and hard to adjust, had to use so much force to adjust and only 3 positions. Every time I adjust it, it's so rough and felt like it's destroying itself.
7) Doesn't come with a helmet bag. at this price, I think it's an industry standard that it should come with a helmet bag.
8) One of the vent hole adjuster fell off after probably 2years of light use (total less than 20 days)
PS. my $250 Made in China helmet (also Snell 05) is better than this one in every area I've described above, and Bell is "Proudly Made in the USA"
