    No point buying a helmet without trying it on.
    A bad fitting helmet is a pointless helmet, and all manufacturers have different shapes.
  • Don't Met do some kind of replacement service? If so then get another Met.

    the met is a couple of years old so doubt they would replace it even if they were to ask

    +2 on the Bell Slant. Went to Halfords and tried on every single helmet they had, and it was the best fit for me, easy to adjust. I forget all about it on a ride, which is exactly as a helmet should be IMO.

    Met wont replace it, but they do offer a very good discount if you send them your old one.
