This a great helmet for when you want to protect yourself from dust and debris but do not like wearing goggles. And for when it is sunny out, the slide down sunscreen acts like sunglasses. The ratchet style buckle makes buckling and unbuckling the helmet a breeze. One downside is that in extremely dusty conditions dust will get on the inside of the clear shield which can be difficult to clean while out on the trails.
Below is information from LS2:
The LS2 Pioneer – A new approach to the full face adventure motorcycle helmet category, the Pioneer
leans heavily on LS2’s Rally experience and offers the rider everything they need for serious adventure riding, but for a lot less cash. The shell is built using LS2’s proprietary Kinetic Polymer Alloy (KPA). This high-tech material is strong, very light and has just a bit of flexibility to help absorb energy. LS2 uses 3 shell sizes for a great fitting helmet that is as small and light as possible. A multi-density EPS safety liner allows for state-of-the-art energy absorption. The comfort padding is covered with a technical, breathable, hypoallergenic fabric. It’s removable and washable, so you can keep it as fresh as new. The shield is fog resistant, scratch and UV resistant, and optically correct. The Pioneer uses LS2’s Twin Shield System built-in sun shield to shade your eyes from the bright desert sun. LS2’s Quick Release System chin strap makes getting it on and off a breeze, and, in case of emergency, the cheek pads use their Emergency Release System quick pull cheek pads. Cheek pads are contour cut from high quality foam using LS2’s 3D laser technology. The wide eye port accommodates most major brands of goggles. The Pioneer makes a great Adventure or UTV helmet. Flow through ventilation keeps you cool when the riding gets tough. Designed at LS2 World Headquarters in Barcelona, Spain and built at their own factory, the Pioneer offers everything you need to build your own adventure, while leaving some cash in your pocket.
