What gear do you know of that helps you ride cooler in the high temps?
Now that the temperatures are rising what is the "Coolest" gear that you have or know about?
The coolest item I have found is the Nolan N43 Air. As I stated in other posts it is NOT DOT approved so you can only legally wear it in countries that uses the european ECE certification. The irony there is the ECE certification is considered the more strict of the two, and DOT continues to certify half helmets.
Airflow in the helmet is one of my top priorities so I imported one from Italy several years ago and I love it.
I don't think Nolan makes the N43 air anymore since it was denied entry to the American market (a real shame). I haven't heard of anything that vents like it but am always looking as my N43 Air will have to be replaced someday.
You also need a helmet liner which helps wick away any sweat you have
