Full Face = Getting yelled at on the bike path

[alsmith]

I haven't come across these full face bike helmets before. I don't like the normal type bike helmets, and have been considering a Casco e-motion as a better choice. Can you give me a couple of the helmet names to start some searching? Thanks

Giro and Bell make really good helmets.

There are tons of different looking helmets out there. Maybe the OP should try out one that most closely resembles a regular bicycle helmet. There's helmets with just a small bar chin guard and options like the Met Parachute:

Yeah, I got the makers from the pics, but what are the models called?

I think the Giro "Remedy" is really good http://www.giro.com/us_en/products/cycling-helmets/remedy.html
Also, you can protect your neck with one of those http://www.bellhelmets.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_id=995

Thanks guys. I was a bit surprised at how many full face helmets there are but after looking I'm going to get a Met parachute- it looks like it won't get as hot as the others, and there's the option of removing the chin piece.
