Review Detail
Offers great all round head protection this is due to the excellent fit of the moulded liner, fixed padded ear protectors, felt padded chin strap and shell.

Superb venting keeps your head cool (bungs are included to close vents). 6 entry vents and 4 exit vents.

Well finished and no foam is on show, felt lined where helmet is in contact with head which makes helmet extremely comfortable, this combined with its lightweight and good fit make you forget you’ve got it on.

Goggles are held in place by a recess running round helmet with a rubber clip ensuring you don’t lose your goggles even after a large wipe-out.

The shape of the helmet works well when wearing Oakley Wisdoms.

Looks good, loads of colours, I opted for Bling™

If you look on the Giro site it’s listed as a kid’s helmet which is strange as mine is a L and my buddies an XXL?

Strengths
