I currently own a Giro Saros (59-63cm) which is a good fit , but the roc loc system has broken twice in a year and I am really unhappy with the quality (currently trying to get thoughts from Giro suppliers Madison).

So I have just ordered a Kask K50 from wiggle (59 - 62cm) which has arrived today. Great looking helmet but it doest fit my head (I don't really know why that extra cm has made the difference).

Im having trouble finding a large size helmet from - can anyone recommend a dependable helmet in the £70-90 price bracket?

    Thanks, I really don't want another Giro though. the quality of my saros is poor and for that reason they area brand that i would not go back to or recommend.

  • Hi

    I have the same problem (i.e. large head!) - I have a Bontrager Quantum, which goes up to 64CM. It fits me fine, and can go a little bigger. Mine is also for sale, should you be interested ; ) I also have a Louis Garneau Quartz which fits me fine.

    Also, take a look at this link, as this is how I choose mine http://www.bhsi.org/bighead.htm

    Cheers
