  1. Greetings!

    New guy here. I am looking for a helmet but the issue is with my melon. It's so big...it has its own gravity. And weather system.

    My size is 8 3/8 (hat) or 66.5 cm or 25 3/8".

    Giro and Bell are two of the manufacturers I looked at but they only go as high as 8 1/8.

    I am willing to spend whatever cost necessary to protect my melon: do you guys have any recommendations?

    Thanks in advance,

    Al.

  2. Welcome Al!

    When you say you looked at Bell and Giro helmets, did you actually try them on? Or were you just looking at them on a web site?

  3. Got one!

    I went to my local LBS yesterday afternoon.

    A Bell Kinghead seems to work best for me: it is comfortable and fits snuggly without wobbling when I shake my head.

    Problem is that I look like a real dork now.[IMG]/img/vbsmilies/smilies/biggrin.gif[/IMG]

    Next step is to call my folks and curse both of them for giving me a huge melon. Sheesh.

    Good deal!
