Helmets

This helmet fits my oddly shaped oblong head perfectly. I'm able to adjust it and cinch it down so it fits snugly with or without a balaclava. I crashed on black ice last winter commuting to work and bounced my head backwards striking the curb. The dent in the helmet is a reminder of how important riding with a helmet that fits well really is. I wouldn't be writing this if not for this helmet and I'll forever know the value of a quality helmet.

I fall exactly in between sizes with a 59cm head circumference. I have a Giro and Bell first generation MiPS helmets in medium that I am replacing. The mediums on me fit fine, maybe a bit high on head but get tight even fully opened if in cold weather with a headband or skull cap. Sucks being in between sizes! Went with a large this time. The Giro large fits well in general, maybe a bit big for me but still have 1-1.5 fingers above brow so should work. Love the quality and build of the top Giro helmets. Price point with my membership status discount on Western Bike Works helps too. Have owned mostly LAS, Giro, and Bell top tier or one step down in models. I will probably order the Giro Aries MiPS in Medium for summer and use the Eclipse large for colder months or some mountain biking. The large on me does give much better forehead, side and back of head protection and Eclipse breaths well too as others have reported. The spherical MiPS is so much better than the original MiPS system. Nice helmet.

Expensive, even on discount, so I would say it's a reasonable good helmet.

Fit on a round head is very good. It's probably very aero by its shape, and I think it flows air reasonably well.

Personally, my ears didn't interfere with the half covering from the helmet.

Size M doesn't feel heavy at all.

One common con for KASK helmet is that sweat will drop down from the front padding when it's fully soaked up.

Overall very satisfied with it. I will see how it feels under the sun when summer comes.

This is the most comfortable and well-made helmet I've used. It strikes a perfect balance between casual style and race-ready design. The fit is excellent with no pressure points, though I had to size up from a small to a medium compared to other brands.

The chin strap felt finicky at first, but the sturdy faux leather softened over time, making adjustments much easier. I chose the white color, which has a subtle bluish tint that I found refreshing compared to standard white helmets.

Overall, this is a fantastic all-around helmet at a great price for the quality.
