Hi

Any recommendations? I have a massive head! If any one else also has a gargantuan cranium, do they know of any "speacial" helmets that might be comfy on me?

Thanks

Al

    How big is massive? My extra-large nappa fits the Spesh prevail fine even in the winter with a Buff underneath it.

    My friends head is pretty big and he's fine in giros.
    But you need tO try them for fit and comfort. Go to the local bike shop.

    If you can't try on, buy from wiggle - easy to send back.

    I have the same problem, ended up with a Las Squalo, first helmet in many years that fits properly and looks good (for a helmet).

    So you've got a small one have you? :lol:

    Actually I've got a big head because I have a thick skull. I once walked into the corner of a garage door and needed to be x-rayed 3 times, with gradually increasing power, because they couldn't get through it!
