Yeah perminent full face is no good. Sod that for 6 hours.
Just want a split so I can put it on sometimes. I should really wear knee and elbow pads more too.

I'd get (and have)a well ventilated lightweight carbon fullface.
With a convertible you won't be bothered to keep swapping out the chin bar. You'll tell yourself "it'll be fine" and that will be the trail you smash your face into a rock.
When it's very hot pedalling in the mountains with a full face, I ride up with it on my back and then put it on for the descent. Zero temptation to leave it attached to my bag. It's also light and well enough ventilated for me to leave it on for smaller linking climbs without it bothering me at all.
New Spesh Gambit looks perfect.

I bought the TLD stage helmet. Doesn’t split but on two rides so far haven’t overheated at all. In fact I have been taken surprise by how well ventilated it is. It appears many of the helmets that split are not as well vented and are quite heavy.
