I've tried many full face helmets and none are as comfortable as my KBC Jet. I know full face is supposed to be safer, but IMO if I'm not comfy in the helmet, then I'm not safe. Have been riding open all my life, all year 'round so I'm not about the change now. As for beanie style, forget it, too noisy and no protection, whereas at least the 3/4 has 3/4 protection.
