Think the Nolan N44 face / jaw offers any less protection than other modulars in a crash? I know modulars don't offer the same face protection as full face, but the face on the Nolan N44 has me wondering if it offers less than the usual modular amount.

he Nolan N44 is the latest evolution of the hugely popular N43E, and is updated in both function and design. The Nolan N44 is a fully modular helmet, ideally responding to the needs of expert motorcyclists and suitable for both summer and winter use. Designed for urban riding, the Nolan N44 is equally at home on a long journey or weekend getaway, and has a unique style that is at home on any bike.

The N44 has six possible configurations which you can personalize through the addition or removal of the chin bar, faceshield and peak, all of which are included. With the chin bar and faceshield installed, the rider can expect the same benefits of a full face helmet. With just the peak and chin bar installed, the helmet flows a great amount of air while still providing the same protection of a full face helmet. With the chin bar, faceshield and peak removed it becomes a true three quarter open face helmet. This gives the rider a great range of flexibility.

"With the chin bar and faceshield installed, the rider can expect the same benefits of a full face helmet."

Really? "the same benefits"?
