Have you tried a thin balaclava without putting it fully over your

I'm confused. Why not just wear a regular hat? Is that not an option for
some reason?



Depends on whether you are wearing a helmet. Fabric with any thickness
can push a helmet up and change the fit.

Dayum, I found this out today. I was doing a very early ride at dawn today,
and used the lightwt bala I used on my old helmet. I now have a Trek Vapor,
I think, and it has that wheel and it's perfect.

I snap the strap and adjust the wheel a few clicks..it's less clicks, but
not too snug, though it feels very snug under the chin.

I get into the ride and about 300yds into a rise, I'm feeling funny...

I realize I'm choking myself the fsk out! Brain is pounding...ok, I
exaggerate a little, but instant relief.

So beware the liner, hat, whatever on an already perfect fitted head gear -
before you ride off in it.

slammed that strap open and my blood quit damming up in my head (lol). With
just the upper adjustment. It was just fine...cool to know now I have two
helmet/riding modes, b.c it was frimly enough onmy head where I didn't
"need" a helmet (so to speak). I only use the helmet b/c of the nice visor,
anyway. Plus place to stick my sunglasses.
