Peaks on helmets

colm_c · 2006-11-10 09:57:21

Hi, I'm looking into getting a new helmet, and one of the Arai Tour X-2's look good, http://www.araihelmet-europe.com/php/page/index2.php?page=tourxOR But I'm wondering about the removable peak, as in, what exactly is it's purpose? sun shade? or something else?

They are usually used off road in hotter climates (anywhere but Ireland). The peak acts as a big sun shade.
