..pretty much as it says on the tin..

do I go for a Giro Xen or Bell Variant as my new lid?

I'm limiting myself to these two options btw so trying to avoid a 100 what about the Fox etc?...!

Sooooo.. opinions please... is the Xen worth the extra £30?

Cheers

  • Both.. hence the question.. it's really weighing up whether one's worth £30 more than the other..

    havent tried the variant but I have the xen and its fantastic. Nice are airy with good protection and a very comfortable fit. Plus with a wide range of colour themes you cant not like it.. But for the money you should be getting a very good helmet so you can go far wrong on either
