I have a big head, 61cm according to the tape measure.

Getting into more AM/DH riding recently so bought a 661 Comp II full face helmet XL (60-62cm according to them) but this is waaay too tight, leaving big marks on my forehead even just trying it on!

I have a Specialized XXL trail lid that says 56-64cm and has to be adjusted smaller to fit my head snugly.

Anyone got a recommendation for a full face lid that won't break the bank or my forehead?

Like the styles of the 661 stuff - is it just this model which is tight or are they all a bit snug?

Any advice from owners would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

    I've got a Giro Remedy that fits very snuggly.

    I tried the 661 lids but they were uncomfortable
