Yes.

If they fit your head, try one on before buying.

The comfiest helmet I've every worn

I really like mine and even though I have a massive head (62cm) the xl/xxl fits perfectly, I think Tweeks have a Stonkin deal on them at the moment.

I have one and really rate it. Been wearing it a couple of years and it's rock solid on my head and is easy to adjust.

Only one issue, despite regular washing the brow pad mings!

Another massive head here. By far the comfiest polystyrene hat I've owned.

Very much like mine. Not many others would fit my tiny head.

Good helmets but I like others have had issues with them loosening on descents when your backpack contacts them. Simple fix, use a zip tie, but not ideal.

Yes, like mine a lot. Fits well and so far its protected my bonce in numerous falls. Those are great prices, I think I'll order another.

I've had one for a year or so. Fits me well with my big head. That blue mips one looks good in that link above.

Had one and sold it as it hurt my head after a couple of hours use... shame 🙁

MIPS seems a bit expensive unless it's a genuine step world of difference. What's the real difference between the regular and race?
