I'm in the market for a new helmet and I like the technology in the Fly Formula Carbon with the Reon and Cone Head EPS. But I also like the 6d ATR-2 and the ODS technology in it. I saw Zach Bell's crash in his 6d but I also saw Weston Peick's crash in the Fly and even though his face was destroyed, his brain wasn't. Just asking. Right now I'm leaning on the side of the Fly because I know that they have the money to create a Premium Helmet and what seems like a better EPS. But I keep seeing the 6d pop up more and more and the ODS seems like a really cool system.

I chose the formula.
Main thing is if you crash in the Formula, you have to buy a brand new Formula which is in line with these helmets but its what $500-700?
Crash in the 6D and they rebuild it for $150. And yes unfortunately I've used that service twice. They call you up to give you a rundown. They told me all about how i crashed with without me telling them which was kind of cool too. The second time it was hard enough that there was a crack in the chin bar. They gave a deep discount to buy a new 6D since it affected the safety/integrity of the helmet and was not designed to be replaceable.
To the guy worried about replacement after a crash I believe Fly has a replacement policy in the first year. Half price maybe?

Try them both on and pick the one that fits your head. Similar helmets and it comes down to your fit.
