I have very long hair (down to my thighs) and with this helmet I am able to pull my braid through the lowest back strap, which both stabilizes the helmet and serves to keep my hair off of my neck, so I stay cool. However, many of the plastic straps have sharp edges which catch on and damage my hair, and I cannot get the nylon straps which run alongside the side of my jaw to lay flat - they twist and are annoying. Next time I will spend the $10 more and get something comfortable. Rating: 3 / 5 The helmet fits well and is easy enough to adjust.

They meet my biking needs entirely and I can say that with pride since this is the third helmet I've bought from Giro. More bang for the buck. Giro is surely the way to go.

Better than buying a $16 helmet at walmart that doesn't fit or look good. It is lightweight and fits very snug. I have no complaints, but it does look like it would break on a hard impact and a new one would be needed. The silver color is great as well as the black. Probably would not fit big headed people, so fatheads you look elsewhere. Rating: 5 / 5 Great bang for the buck helmet. With free shipping it was a great value.

Could not get straps to adjust properly and secure a comfortable fit. As a result, this item was returned. Rating: 1 / 5 Did not enjoy this particular helmet.
