Hi,

I was looking for a helmet for my girlfriend on the Giro site, but they don't seem to do many female one's for off road. I think she likes the Pneumo but this is road one or can they be used for off road :?

    can be used for either. Generally MTB lids have a peak but not all.

    save your money - girls don't ride fast enough to warrant helmets.
    Only the meek get pinched. The bold survive.

    Yes but, if she did happen to come off imagine the grief you'd get, or on second thoughts don't.

    Do what you fear, you won\'t regret it.

    You are only as brave as your skill level.
