Recommendation on helmet @ 3lbs or less.

Most helmets I've looked at and tried are around 3.6lbs and up.
I'm trying to find something a little lighter so it's more comfortable for long trips.

Any recommendations?

Well, it doesn't have to be under 3lbs. Just something lighter than the typical 3.5 lbs helmets. The Nexx XR1R carbon looks like a good helmet but $600 is a little much.
Thanks for the chart Dart (pun intended :)). I have and RF1000 as well, also no complaints. It looks like finding an under 3 pound helmet is going to be a challenge for the OP.
