| bargain choice for comfy helmet by Kin P. Lo 5 Stars September 09, 2009 nothing fancy, just a basic helmet at a good price. it gets the job done, and the ventilation is adequate.
| | Good comfort, value by B. Horton (Texas, USA) 5 Stars September 03, 2009 This is a nice looking helmet. The universal fit feature works well and adjusts fast. It fits my big head fine (7 1/2" hat size). You get a lot for your money, plus is comes with a bonus Bell sticker (that my son immediately claimed!).
Buy with confidence.
| | Broke on second use by Anikin 2 Stars July 25, 2009 The price is right, but the dial-fit wheel started to slip, and wouldn't tighten properly the second time I used it. That part is very flimsy and not well-designed.
The helmet has good cooling.
Seems to leave way too much of the back of the head exposed. I understand that the pointy part in the back will keep your head from hitting the ground if you fall backwards. However, if something were to hit you in the lower part of the back of the head - such as a truck mirror for example - there would be nothing to stop it except that flimsy, hard dial-fit buckle.
The chin strap fits uncomfortably, if you adjust it to hold the helmet securely. It really digs into that area where your jaw meets your neck. If you loosen it, then the helmet doesn't seem to be on securely.
Looks too bulky on my head.
| | Good helmet, great price by Brabytrain 4 Stars June 06, 2009 This helmet is highly recommended and worked perfect for me. Fits well on my head (adult male, 6'00") and tightens well.
Not many features, but who needs it? A great helmet for
| | A Great Choice by L. Emerson (Bangor, Maine) 4 Stars March 11, 2009 If you're looking for a simple and comfortable helmet, this is it.
For those wary of a "one size fits all" helmet, don't be. The helmet has a "web" of hardly noticeable plastic straps that can be tightened or loosened using a discreet dial on the back of the helmet. It makes this helmet, which without this system would wobble all over the place on my head, fit snugly. I haven't been in a crash, so I can't speak for its protection, but I'm confident that the helmet would do its job.
My only complaint is that it didn't come with a visor. I had seem some photos of the helmet with a visor, and every other helmet I've bought came with one, but not this helmet. Perhaps it was just left out of my particular package.
All in all, a great choice.
