What can I say? It fits well, it’s not too uncomfortable when crashing into things. The styling is also tasteful and low-key and should look good for some time to come. Actually this helmet is more rounded in the back, which seems to be the fashion, whereas many helmets have Hermes-esque aerodynamic shapes protruding.

Speaking of plumage, the helmet I really liked was the Bell Influx, but it looked HUGE in the mirror — all that sculpting meant extra foam and plastic jutting everywhere. The Bell helmets are also flat on the roof, which is bad for folks with pointy heads; the Giros seem to have a vent running down the top ridge which is more comfortable.

Plus, I’ve had some nice-to-meet-yous with hard objects and I can vouch for its effectiveness.
