i've got a LAS squalo at the moment and tried on a giro E2 large the other day and it just fitted, looking to replace my semi mx that has always been a bit too small and took a massive slap on the tarmac a few months back. thinking about getting a piss pot for durability of getting nocked around commuting and dirt etc but dunno what comes big enough. the size charts definately don't work because aparently an E2 and a xen are the same size (L) while one fits and the other doesn't get close.

so any suggestions for big piss pot type lids, like the pro tecs and the watersports one just about fit but i can't find a LBS with the bike ones in to try.

cheers

  • Met Testagrossa or the higher spec version called Predatore are upto 64cm headds.

    These will be your best shots


    Most size l are for 60cm melons

    Here's my tip from an earlier thread:

    http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtop ... hlight=f14
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.
