Maybe comfy in Sweden but not so comfy here in the MidAtlantic states during
summer.  I have both: an Arai Quantum that's about 3 years old and the
Shuberth, which is 1.5, and I'd say that the Shuberth is noisier and hotter
than the Arai, and it's face shield tends to close on its on.  The Arai's
stays where I put it.  I do LIKE that built in sun visor, however.  The
Shuberth is also a closer fitting helmet.  When push comes to shove, I chose
the Arai.
