You are, of course, entitled to your own opinion.

I like eating too much to chance loosing my chin and teeth.

Literally more than a decade since people responded to this thread. That's awesome.

Have there been any updates to the Dietmar Otte study showing where approximately 50% of impacts happen where only a full face helmet show coverage?
