Helmets for big round heads
Apologies if this has been asked before.
I'm helping helmet-shop for a friend has a big head. Really. It's at least 65+ mm around, and it is round, not oval, in shape. He complains that even XXL helmets are no good for him because they're made for people with oval shaped heads. Any recommendations on big round bike helmets? Thanks very much for any clues on this. nycvelo |

A circumference of 65 mm is about the size of my index finger. A circumference of 65 cm is about the size of my head.

BTDTGTTS All I can suggest is that your friend find a store that carries a wide variety of helmets that he can try on. Then try on helmets until he finds one that fits. If he finds one that almost--but not quite--fits, then it's worth trying on another helmet of the same model. Sometimes there's enough variation from helmet to helmet that one will fit even though another doesn't. A couple years ago, I found a Bell Zodiac 2 (size M/L) that fit me. But that probably won't help your friend since I'm sure the helmets available today are different. -- Darin McGrew, , http://www.rahul.net/mcgrew/ Web Design Group, , http://www.HTMLHelp.com/ "Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance." |
