Helmets & Helmet Suggestions

😬

Went for a specialized airnet in white, mainly because of massive discount and it looking like a badger

Of the three, s-works evade, giro synthe or kask protone?

And where can I try them on?

Whichever fits best. Sigma?

If you want aero, the Ballista is cheap(ish) at Sigma

Not especially. Just less mushroomy and the evade is cheaper than the other two

don't get an evade

ok. Just because I'd look like a twat or coz they're crap? I'd rather not an aero looking one anyway. It was just cheap

get the one that fits

It's really fast but makes you look like a twat.

Do it!

Synthe is mad comfy but haven't tried the others

then you have a narrow head which rules out Kask.

They more "round"?

yep, could never get my head into the biggest Giro/Spesh but can easily fit into medium Protone

I was medium Specialized Prevail and am medium Kask Protone. Slightly less room for a cap in winter, but still fits me fine.

Might just get the rapha one. It'll be cheaper than the giro if I can get discount from a mate

I've made another road helmet. Amazing bang for the buck, atmo ;)

£99 or 129 with Mips.

Looks nice. How do we bang in UK?

I wish Sweet helmets came in bigger sizes...

FWIW, follow up from earlier posts, I went for the Giro Synthe. I’m at the top end of a medium so the rear support is fully open but it’s proper comfy, I sometimes forget I’m wearing it. Pretty light and looks good too

Cheers. Jungle Products is our UK distributor (same that got Santa Cruz, KS etc). I'd check with them for nearest LBS. Or just order from http://www.sweetprotection.com directly.

Have you tried the road fit, size L? https://sweetprotection.com/sp_no/helmet-fit-guide

Anyone recommend a helmet for a head that wider at the rear than front, pear shape in a 58cm
