Yes nearly immediately.
Have noticed visors are dear, at £60+ nearly everywhere and few pinlock ready. Have also read it's a little noisy... Damn, criteria for new lid this summer was pinlock ready visor and quiet.
But, one review on the M5X with the blue and one on the one with the green say supplied with tinted visor, clear visor, breath/nose foggy guard, helmet carry bag and helmet cover... That's good!
Let's hope it fits... If so, time to buy a tiny drill bit, pinlock, and earplugs!
If not, I'll shout on here, and perhaps could swap pads with someone in a simillar position?

However, not sure of the design, and think it could be a little small, but it's certainly a lot of helmet for the money, and if I don't like it or it doesn't fit, Amazon are great with returns.
I usually wear a medium AGV, and have ordered a small - the closest size I could get in an M5X, the best value for money one on offer - and have read about people going a tad smaller in Bell helmets, especially in the Star range of the M5X oddly.
We'll see!
It's just a tad American, but for the price I don't care. Frankly I'd happily wear a pink helmet saying I'm gay for a decent saving.I usually wear a medium AGV, and have ordered a small - the closest size I could get in an M5X, the best value for money one on offer - and have read about people going a tad smaller in Bell helmets, especially in the Star range of the M5X oddly.

Their sizes match up with my Caberg on the charts so I just went for the same Medium, as you say it's Amazon, so worst case scenario I return it and end up back where I started.
Can't lose anything but 20 minutes of your life really.
If it's a bit on the large side that will probably suit me and my lumpy head.
I re ordered and have gone for the same as you PP Green/red/white.
im an XL in HJC and Arai so went for that, I saw one last night and it looked the bks with the Tinted visor on.
It didn't really say what it comes with on Amazon but I have seen on ebay that they come with plush helmet bag and chin guard etc.

It comes with a tinted/clear visors and visor bag and removal kit doesn't it?
Or did I dream that?
me thinks so. Or did I dream that?
even if it doesn't, my agv is almost done, after 4 years, its looking shagged the visor is scratched to fk, I refuse to buy more costing £40, the padding has all went. it will be a nice replacement.
i'll probably still not bin that lid mind
Exactly easy returns with Amazon. Pictures look st and can't find any real pics anywhere, but if you it looks the bks in person that's promising as I'm unsure on the design.
An Amazon review of a variation (MTBs I think) says it comes with a foggy guard nose thingy, bag, cover, tinted visor and visor removal kit... Eg. Allen key... Bit of a faff compared to the quick release on my agv.
Same boat as you though MTB, AGV with two shagged visors, loose cheek pads and lining. Not worth replacing them at all now. Was gonna get a low end carbon lid, but this is without a doubt a better buy, higher end carbon-kevlar probably better than low end carbon lid.
Where are £20 aftermarket visors then MTB? Couldn't find any under £50 last night.
Mine should arrive tomorrow... Amazon prime woohoo! Hope it fits.

Oh and I just ordered two orange flip up jobs, for me at the little girl! I love oRange and nice ans safe having a bright orange head, IMO.
Proper bargains these.
The price for a flip-up is quite impressive. I swore i'd never have one after an accident round town that had my face (if not for my full face helmet) punch a 1" deep dent in the fuel tank. But that's tempting.Proper bargains these.
How do these helmets size. I'm an XL in Schuberth. Same? Or go bigger/smaller?
