Re: Helmets

I have rounded off to Airoh Speed Fire Pit Bull model. Now the question is which size should i choose !!!

I have measured the dia of my head and its coming around 57.5cms and 58cms some times

57-58 are coming under M and 59- 60 are coming under L .. so which size should i go for ? i don't want a too snug fit as it ll irritate me when riding in traffic. So please suggest me which size should i go for ?

it would be better if you could check the size by actually wearing the helmet.. that way, you could select the size that's most comfortable for you..
if you are buying from an online site, buy from the one which lets you exchange the product in case of size misfit..

see, by your calculations the head dia comes to around 58. it would be better to go for L.. you yourself said you don't want to go for tight fit and for M, it would be like that..

hmm.. then buy M size.. 57-58 range is for M
online is always risky.. only buy if its a reputed site.. else you would be putting your hard earned money on risk..

from which site are you considering buying ?

As I've suggested numerous times to many people regarding the same, I'd suggest you go for L having been owning one of their helmet. It's always wise to go for one size bigger when it comes to their helmets. I usually wear a large which fits my head well. But their was tight, I mean too tight, I bite my cheeks so many times and apart for that the helmet is a class apart.

If you can try it that's great, if you can't then go for L.

European fits are always narrower and not wide unlike Asian fits. But the sizing runs a little smaller than usual. I'd suggest you go for an L.

Cheers!

if they have exchange policy, then buy without worry.. even if the size don't fit, then yo can exchange for the correct size

Re: Helmets

finally searched and made my purchase, looked through all, starting from Studds helmet which I saw in a Honda Showroom but had to drop it has they said they won't give any guarantee. . . Then later on searched with LS2, TiH and other Studds and Steelbird and Vega and at last got the Vega Axor. . .






above are the pics of the helmet, it has good ventilation, fits perfectly and is safer too. . . BTW not to mention it's new in the market, . . He had both the Vega Axor and Vega Cara dual visor but I found the Axor a good option and took it. . .

actually I very much liked the Studds helmet, I think it was something like Scorpion or so, the design, the ventilation and the comfort was so nice but eventually they denied for a warranty, so I went for this or else would had taken that and wait something more coming soon, will post those pics on Mondays . . .

Cheers!!!

Re: Helmets

@Rakesh Rok, nice going there. Way better than those off road helmes. Congo. If you can if you can post some snaps of the helmet inside with the cheekpads removed that'd be so great. Thanks.

Cheers!
