   I bought a new bike this year. Wanted to get motivated to ride to work more. Bought new padding for my old helmet all was good. A young man that works for me rides his bike to work everyday. He told me that I should replace my helmet every 5 years or so. Makes sense and I figured I would try something different than my Giro. I’ve had two Giro helmets before this one this last one I’ve had for 11 years. I’m going to keep it had as back up.Not knowing anything about new helmets and seeing there were a lot of choices I picked this one for a few reasons. One the name. I know about Smith they are a little pricey but figured I’d give it a try. I don’t need a crazy expensive helmet and I know you get what you pay for in the cheap ones. MIPS, never heard of this but if they say it’s safer then it’s an added measure of feeling good knowing it will protect me from injury in the event of a crash. I grew up in the 80’s and 90’s and rode without a helmet up until I bought a nice mountain bike. So anything to me is better than nothing. The 11 year old Giro that I have still looks good and has been kept in inside. I know the material could be brittle but again anything is better than nothing at all. I like the black. I bought some red reflective stickers to place around it for looks and better function. The padding is good the tighten adjuster is easy. I like the click of the wheel giving you minor adjustability to dial in the fit. When it’s cold in the morning I wear a cap that I have to adjust it out to fit then during lunch or the ride home in the afternoon is easy to adjust back. Chin adjustment is easy too. The visor seems easy to get on and off. I typically had taken the visor off because on my Giro they didn’t stay on very well. I’ve left it on so far it’s been okay and well in place.Overall so far it’s a great helmet. I’ve never had any major crashes with any of my helmets and this would be the third helmet I’ve owned in 17 years of riding. I’ve been riding to work three or four days a week for the last three weeks. Compared to the Giro that I just replaced the pads on it this one seems to be just as comfortable. The only thing that’s really different is the adjuster to tighten it to your head. Oh and I guessed on the size I bought a medium and it fits perfectly. Most of the Giro helmets that I was looking at were universal in size. As I said you get what you pay for if you’re serious about safety then spending an extra few dollars on a good helmet is worth it. But with that said anything is better than nothing. I’m surprised I survived childhood with no helmet and I was many wrecks and crashes. This is about $20 higher than the Giro’s I was looking at and you can get a better fit with more specific sizes. This is also as light in weight as my old Giro. All the really cheap helmets I looked like they had a light in the back of it which meant it had a battery which to me would make it heavier. Overall I like this helmet so far. We’ll see how long it last. Instruction manual says replace after three years that seems kinda short. But they gotta try and make money too. Happy helmet hunting.

   The helmet is for rounder heads. Does not squeeze side of head, much more comfortable than regular fit helmets. Have tried several, Smith Optics Signal, and Giro Agilis, This fits way more comfortable.

   I really like this helmet. My prior helmet was close to the head and did not have a visor, it was also tight. This helmet feels great and you can adjust tightness yourself. I used this after getting a bit of skin cancer removed from my head, and since I was able to adjust the tightness it was comfortable on my head.

   My measurements fell in the small size, but I have a square head and had to size up to medium. Fits nice and feels good. Fortunately, I haven’t had to use it for it’s intended purpose…..

   I have problems finding a helmet that fits my large head. I think this would fit any large head.

   Comfortable adjustable fit, sturdy but light. I went over the handlebars once with it, and it protected my head very well. No complaints with this helmet at all.
