If you can get your head in, great helmet
Impossible to get the head in without tearing out the ears. Had to return it due to the fact that my ears were still soared after a week !

Good for round, bad for oval
First off, the graphics are fire. They look even better in person. The helmet features are so-so compared to similarly priced LS2 or HJC. The main reason for my rating is the description - it says that it fits ovals heads, but this is very much a round fit! After buying and returning, I found multiple online reviews that agree.
So, if you’ve got a round dome and want wild decals at a decent price - get it. If you’ve got an oval head - skip it.

Cool, light and noisy
The good is that it's very light weight and cool design.
The bad is that it's not very good isolating wind noise, very loud past 80 km/h.

Pull the tabs to save your ears
Fit and finish are excellent. Pull the tabs away from your head while taking it on or off and you will save your ears. Visor fits and seals great. Lightweight. Venting works good for hot days. Only gripe is wind noise and I suspect a person would need to spend a good bit more to improve that.
I really like the helmet and would buy it again.

Great Helmet for the price
Great lens and small visor provide protection. Let’s sound in. You should have ear protection when you ride anyway. The option for a com system is a great idea!

Nearly perfect
Great Helmet! Huge field of view.
Super light. Very comfortable.
Highly recommend
The visor locks and the top and bottom but you can still crack it open a sliver for some more air.

Awesome helmet, fits great... but..
Awesome premium helmet, I wear size 7 3/4 hats so I was a little worried about this one fitting properly in a size L but I was shocked when it fit my head almost perfectly (mind you your forehead will be a little sore until you break it in).
The only real downside as others have stated is that it fits a little TOO well and when you want to take it off it will very hurt your ears. So if you have a head that requires a size 7 1/2 to 7 3/4 hats then the L size will fit your nogging perfectly.
It's a head turner, I got back from a ride and I had sooooo many people look at it and some telling me it looks like venom lol. I don't regret the purchase, good luck!

Questions
Can the chin vents be closed? Or are they permanently open? Permanently open will 'water-board' you in the rain like my Lanesplitter does.
The chin vents can be opened or closed with a switch on the inside of the helmet.

When we wear this how much air effect and sound
As per reviews this helmet is going to get a fair amount of wind noise

Can you remove the black peak on the front ?
Yes, and no, as it does require getting a different face shield. The face shield it comes with has that visor attached to it and it won't be removeable from the face shield. While it isn't removeable from the face shield you can just get the standard Domain face shield and it won't have that on there. You can find the link below.

Yes, it does.
