I just bought the same helmet in the same colour in L. I'm normally an XL in motorbike helmets but it feels too lose. The headband feels a bit loose at the front. Was that the issue with yours or was it tight? Thanks
Yeah, I think they’re quite big size wise, I bought a large and it felt a bit too big, even with the thicker cheeks pads and fully tightened on the boa fastener at the back.
@@ForestMountainBiker is that the one you stuck with? The boa on my helmet has more to go but it just feels like it tightens the sides rather than the front. Thanks
@@sgoaty Yeah, feels like a pad at the back of the helmet on more padding on the front would make it fit/hold better, you’re right, only the sides get tight with the boa 👍 I sized down to a medium in the end and using the thicker cheek pads, that how’s I found the right fit in the end
how's the sizing? My head is 56 cm, but I've read online that the medium doesn't quite fit really tight and snug for this particular size, do you think it's possible to downsize to get a tiger fit or just deal with it.
Glad you asked, I'm 58cm and I find the medium maybe too big, I have the boa fastener cranked very tight to make it feel snug, so a small if you're 56cm may well be a good idea 👍
A mi me ocurre igual, con 57cm el ajuste boa no me gusta, para mi opinión le falta una espuma en la nuca para mejorar el ajuste, yo le he puesto una espuma de nuca de un smith que tenía golpeado y sulucinado
I have 56cm too. For the Specialized Gambit i needed S. Ordered S for the Fox too. When you Like it tight Go for S. Remember they Always loose from time to time
Nice video.. thanks! Are these trails at Ellwood? They look familiar!
Yeah, that trail is the mainline at Ellwood 👍 We’ll spotted 👊
thanks for the video but should I oerpay for the rs really if I im just riding for fun?

@@namelessmusik4345 Not your first rodeo 👍😅
Nice helmet and great review, will probably get one in addition to my MET Parachute MCR 😁 Did it come with additional cheek pads?
Thanks for the comment buddy 👍 yup, thick and think cheek pads included 👊
@@ForestMountainBiker Perfect, thanks a lot! Just ordered it 🥳
@@D.Danko_thall yeoh 👊
Very uncomfortable helmet for long day riding, feel painful over the neck area
Thanks for the comment 👍 I do use a different helmet now myself 👍
