   Michaux – February 14, 2016

   Giro Savant helmetLet me say first that I’ve used a Bell Image helmet for decades, so that is my only basis for comparison. I purchased the Giro Savant in a medium size based on the Giro sizing chart and it fits well and comfortably, even though I’m near the small end of the range for that size. The knob-adjustable head strap is a distinct improvement over the Bell and helps to hold the helmet securely on the head. The chin strap arrangement seems to follow modern practice, but is not nearly as elegant as the old Bell, whose straps lay flush with the sides of the head, and had an elegantly simple snap closure under one ear. The Giro’s straps twist as they pass through the fitting below the ear on each side and therefore are not completely flush with the sides of the head, although I don’t find it uncomfortable. The straps are a bit fiddly to adjust, but once done, they seem to stay put. That the Giro is available in hi-viz yellow (like the Bell) and with reflective side strips may help to avoid vehicular altercations (I don’t understand the suicidal fad for black bicycles and accessories.)My first ride with the Savant was on a cool (59 deg F) summer morning with low dew point and I immediately noticed the improved airflow over the scalp, as compared to the Bell. The second thing that I noticed as I reached speed was markedly increased wind noise around the ears. I don’t know whether the noise is due to the twisted straps, the increased airflow through the helmet, or the more pronounced notch above the ears, but it is louder than the Bell. The differences that I cite seem typical of most modern helmets that I’ve observed so perhaps the noise is the price of better fit and airflow, and my only concern is that it may mask the sound of approaching traffic, children or dogs. As I’ve become accustomed to the sound, it is not objectionable. The Giro is comfortable to wear and remained so for the duration of my ride (about 1hr, 45 min.), without shifting around or pressure points. On my second ride of similar length but higher temperature and humidity, the Giro Savant disappeared from my consciousness – a good thing.I used the Giro Savant almost daily for about two months and found it to be everything that I expected until an unknown event occurred and I apparently hit the pavement. I say unknown because I suffered a concussion and blank memory for about 20 minutes until I returned to my home, unaware how I arrived. A review of my injuries and those of the bike, clothes and helmet suggested that I landed on my back and struck the back of my head. The only external evidence on the Savant was a blunted point and slight scratching at the rear. Inside the Savant showed hairline cracking of the rigid foam structure at several places surrounding the presumed point of impact. There was no visible evidence of injury to my head, suggesting that my concussion resulted from internal impact of my brain with the skull. I have no way to know how the performance of the Giro Savant might compare to other helmets in this circumstance and I don’t intend to repeat the experiment, but the Giro remained intact, as did my head, if not uninjured (the 20 minutes remain lost). I will buy another Giro Savant.

   This is a great helmet. I ride in Florida and in the summer when its hot (90+ degrees) the helmet is cool and I can hardly feel I have it on. The fit is perfect, it is light, and price is right. As far as protection, I have not yet had the opportunity to try it out (and I hope I never will), but I am sure it will give you more than adequate protection. Great helmet and I highly recommend it.

   While I have only had this helmet for 4 weeks, and I need to buy a new one, this helmet saved my life. Recently I was cycling on a bike path when I had a nasty fall. My head hit the pavement hard, hard enough to cause the helmet to crack. At the hospital I was given a CT scan to check for head injuries and despite numerous other injuries, I had no head injury, no bruise even. IT’s be a week since my crash and while I still have plenty of healing to do, I am thankful that this helmet may have saved my life. IF you ride, wear a helmet and I recommend Giro

   Helmet is lightweight (for the causual everyday rider like me), but it has a semi-oval shape. It kinda fit my round head, but didn’t seem to feel comfortable enough to wear on a long ride . I own a Kask Mojito and it fits perfect, but it has some age on it…..so I’m in the market to try something new. I heard that Giro made some round head fitting helmets, so I’ll keep looking.

   The helmet is decent for the price. Giro is a great helmet maker. It’s comfortable and breathes easily. It’s also a nice looking helmet.This helmet doesn’t have MIPS. More importantly, this helmet ranks 117th on UVA’s bicycle safety tests, so it’s not the safest helmet.I have since purchased a Specialized Align II that is ranked the 9th best helmet and only costs $50, half the price of the Savant. Still, I am going to hang onto my Giro as a backup.
