Excellent helmet!
I have a big head and the large fit me well. The helmet breaths very well, I was no hotter than when I just wore a standard helemt without the face shield. it is light and comfortable. Fortunately I've not needed the face shield yet, but I push myself a little more becuase I feel so protected. And the comfort is amazing. A must have for any serious mountain biker.

Awesome Helmet
The Remedy Carbon is solid helmet. Its one of the more affordable carbon fiber offerings out there and for the price its great. Its very light and very comfortable. Comfort for helmets though does ultimately depend on how it fits a particular head. But if this one fits ok, its comfortable. I have owned 2 of these. I broke the first in a hard crash (which the helmet is supposed to do). My head was fine though, the helmet did its job. Giro offers a decent crash replacement policy where they will give you I think it was 35% off a new helmet if you wreck yours in a crash. Keep in mind in a helmet is supposed to break in a real hard crash, that's how it protects your head.
Excellent protection, lightweight, and stylish too!
This is a great helmet - very light for the protection it offers. It will start off a bit snug, and my hurt your head a bit, but then it breaks in and feels wonderful. It does not move around while riding, which is important for safety reasons. Also, it is HOT lookin', which the girly girl in me appreciates.. but also tough lookin', to suit the tomboy side that requires said helmet :-)

Giro Feature Mountain Bike Helmet (Matte Black, Large)
As trail riding progresses, helmets have to evolve. The Feature starts with a new shape that combines a little more coverage than traditional trail helmets, with vents that radiate heat up and out of the helmet; perfect for climbing at lower speeds. And when the trail drops, our rugged In-Form fit system offers one-handed fit and stability adjustment, so you can dial-in the perfect feel and stay focused on the trail ahead.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

the best helmet for me
This is the best helmet I ever had for my type of riding (which is mostly going down, but I have to earn these descents). The fitting of this helmet is so good that it feels like it was molded on my head. I also think that this is a great looking helmet - it not like most other bike helmet that look like a mushroom - it has a low profile and curdle most of the head, given you a great protection. Also this seems like a true mountain bike helmet and not like something adopted from road biking. Having said that, I have to point its few limitations - it is poorly ventilated, its one of those helmet that you must try before you buy as the retention system is doing very little (it fits just like a full face helmet - its either sits good on your head or it not, there is no in-between for this one). Also it does feel cheaper than my previous helmet (the Xen) with must less padding and the straps feel very thin (it is however lighter helmet than the Xen). Another plus for this one is the...

buy. this. helmet.
of the dozen helmets i've ever own, all mid and high range giro, this is top in (quality, design)/price.
size: small wrap-around design results in a nice low profile.
weight: light as giro's higher end helmets. you lose the sensation of having it on.
strap: well positioned and unobtrusive.
head restraint: works well with a sturdy responsive knob.
cooling/heating: ?? wait until summer.
Giro Feature Mountain Bike Helmet
Wasnt sure at first when I ordered this helmet.. The biggest size it comes in is a large, (23" - 24 1/2") so I had my wife measure my big melon! It measured out to 23 1/4 so I thought what the heck... All and every mountain bike helmet I tried on in the stores just didnt fit or look right. I mean there was no way I was whearing those lame looking mushroom tip helmets!!! After I recieved my Giro in the mail, I ripped open the box like a kid on christmas day and tried it on and it was perfect! By far the best looking helmet and a lot more protection for my big dome! I recomend this helmet to anyone and it is light weight fast shipping and the 59.00 dollar price was just right! Just what I was looking for and for once something fit!

Giro Reverb Urban Cycling Helmet (Matte Titanium, Medium)
Classic cycling style for today's urban rider. The Reverb's compact, classic lines are a perfect match to the clean new style that is driving urban cycling. The light-yet-tough In-Mold shell wraps around to the inside of the helmet to resist dents and dings from life on the streets, and a self-adjusting fit system eliminates the need to dial-in the fit when wearing a cycling or winter caps. The finishing touch is a simple, removable cycling cap-style visor that adds a touch of style without compromising cooling ventilation in changing weather.

Fits Well, Looks Sharp, Lightweight, Comfortable
I write this from the perspective of someone who has not crashed or otherwise tested the safety qualities of this product. Let's hope I never do. But from my experience wearing it, it's a very comfortable, well-fitting helmet that looks sharp.

Fit: The plastic cage inside the helmet is adjustable in three positions near the front of the helmet. Elastic holds the assembly snug around the back of the head, near the neck. I find the elastic is easier to work with and more comfortable than the knob that clicks. It stays in position even if I whip my head around, look down or sit up suddenly. And it fits with the bulky temple pieces on my prescription sunglasses.

Comfort: Very lightweight compared to other helmets with fuller coverage and less ventilation, like this one. The removable visor is a nice touch. An alternate piece of cushioning is provided to replace the visor, and it goes on in a flash with velcro. Easy. The clasp on the chin strap is one of the easiest...

Fits nice and snug, and it's def a Beaut!
Just received my helmet yesterday. So happy it's under Prime. It's beautiful in Highlight Yellow It fits nice and snug on my head. Have yet to wear it when I ride, but when I do, I'll make sure to update this review.

A big plus for me is that the helmet meets Bike Safety Standards (says so in manual and inside helmet). I initally planned to get the Bern Watts helmet in highlight yellow until I read in an Amazon review that Bern Watts wasn't tested to determine if it met safety regulations. I know they are both helmets, but I rather be safe than sorry (or dead).

Plus this is a pretty good looking helmet. Buy from Amazon. Must less expensive here than purchasing from a retailer.

Updated:

I absolutely loveee this helmet. It's comfortable. I don't get too hot when I wear it (especially since we've encountered heat wave after heat wave this year). And I feel safe.
Girgo Reberb bike helment
This retro bike helmet is great as far as I am concerned. No problems with the fit after almost daily use for about a month.The straps are above average and the helmet's inside padding & venting is very good. I didn't think I would use the visor but I changed my mind after trying it. Also, I think this is the first helmet that dosent make you look like a dork wearing it.
I have the bright yellow one and it make you very visible. Five Stars for everything *****..

Giro Phase Mountain Bike Helmet (Matte White Icons, Medium)
First and foremost, a mountain bike helmet should be comfortable and durable. The Phase is true to the core; light, cool and durable enough to handle even the most daunting climbs and rock-strewn ribbons of single-track. With the easy fit and adjustability of Acu Dial 2 and the comfort of Super Fit sizing, it's a top performer for riders looking a low-profile helmet at a great price.

Great cost / performance / fit
Changed from an old Bell Oasis to the Phase. I ride MTB in (mostly) and off road. In the process tried different models from other suppliers like Bell and up and down in Giro product line. Ended up with this helmet. Very solid feeling not like other low priced options in market and close enough to the more expensive ones. Please bear in mind that head measurement is an indicative of helmet size but heads some are more elongated than others. In spite of same meas. helmet fitting is a little tricky. Other helmets like Bell Venture caused some uncomfortable pressure on my head . This one gave a better fit. I do not like the road helmet + baseball cap underneath to protect my face from the sun. So having a visor is a plus, specially since I ride under rainy conditions frequently. Highly recommended product. I do ride 700+ miles per month.
Long term impression : after 1300 hours of use, fit is still very close to new so pads haven't collapsed which speak very loud about...

Excellent helmet
I have had 3 Giro Phase helmets, and had two accidents where my head hit the ground at a decent speed and both times I walked away with no head injury although the helmet was clearly beyond saving. I give Giro a lot of credit for a well designed helmet and a great fit - highly recommended.
Good value for nice helmet, but Acu Dial 2 was defective
This is a pretty decent helmet from Giro, but the one I received was defective. The Acu Dial 2 fit mechanism would not stay tight. I'd read some similar complaints about this model, but figured I'd give it a try. I also tried it on in a local outdoor store and noticed that several of the same model Giro Phase helmets had the same problem where the Acu Dial 2 fit system would not hold the tightness setting and would come loose.

I must also note that the helmet I received from Amazon appeared to be a returned item, as the box was very worn and the packaging seemed like it had been unpacked and re-packed several times. I assume it was probably returned due to the defective Acu Dial 2 fit mechanism.

In the end, I called Giro directly and they gladly sent a replacement Acu Dial 2 strap to my home (received in about 4-5 days). I easily replaced it and now have a fully functional Giro Phase helmet. At the discounted price I got this for from Amazon, this was well...

Giro Bell Xar All-Mountain Sport Helmet (Large, Matte Black/Gray Bars)
The new czar of All Mountain. The XAR offers all the features you've come to expect from Giro's top-level trail-riding helmets - P.O.V. adjustable visor; full coverage in-mold composition with EPS foam and polycarbonate shell; Roll Cage enforcement and the new Roc Loc 5 fir system - the XAR truly heralds a new era of performance, comfort and style. At the heart of this helmet you'll find 17 Wind Tunnel vents as well as optimized internal channeling, and the visor is vented to increase airflow. Breathability on the XAR is incredible; there's never been a lid this breathable on dirt. Even the padding is extraordinary thanks in part to the X-Static anti-microbial fabric. Today's All Mountain riders crush the climbs as well as they shred the descents. Their bikes beautifully merge minimal weight, climbing prowess and downhill capability. The riders are buying the best and are ushering in the new standard for all-mountain performance. Just as riding styles and bikes have evolved, so must the helmet. the new XAR, inspired by the Xen, but designed to meet the performance needs of today's progressive all-mountain rider.

Tried at local bike shop for proper fit, bought at Amazon
Easy dial to snug fit around my head. Some hard spots on my head but it did come with additional stick on padding. I tried this helmet at local bike shop like the fit on my melon so I bought it online. So far satisfied, will take out today in the 100 degree weather to determine it breath-ability. Had a Giro for a spare for friends who would Mt. Bike with me and it lasted so long the padding dry rotted and fell out. Thought it was time to replace and this one is it.

Forget I am wearing a helmet!
I use this helmet for mountain biking, and it is so comfortable and fits so well, that I almost forget that I am wearing it. It stays in place and doesn't make any noise.
Great Helmet
Great helmet, a little pricey. I got it to replace my 5 year old Xen. Some say it is heavier, I found it to be no heavier and I like the retention better. Especially the ability to move the rear part up or down the back of my head. Overall it is a good value and very comfortable.

Giros Remedy Mountain Full-Face Bike Helmet (Matte Cool Grey, Medium)
The fiberglass-shelled Remedy offers the same level of protection, ventilation and attention to detail as its big brother - the Remedy CF - yet manages it all at a nice price. It's built for long park sessions, big mountain riding, cleaning sketchy, exposed lines or anything else in the gravity realm. Key features like a washable interior liner, no-tool visor adjust, and matchless graphics make the Remedy the preferred choice by the best riders on the planet.

The Best
My 7 yr old was in a bike wreck which his face was scraped up. So went online line to look for full face helmet. Heard about this company from local bike shop. Order via amazon due to great price. I cant tell you how much my son likes this helmet light weight and cool design style. I feel so relaxed riding with him now, knowing if he was to wreck again that is face is well protected. Parents due your kids a favor and don't take the easy road when it comes to bike safety other helmets dont protect very much.

Click here to read the full review for more information about this product.


Exactly what I wanted.
This helmet does exactly like any review says. It protects your head completely.

It was a little snug on my head at first but once I wore it a couple times it loosened just a little. It breathes realistically well for a full face helmet.

Some things I didn't expect:

It is much lighter then I would have expected, which is great. No reason for the carbon one honestly.

Also, I live in an area with lots of bug life. And you know when you hear that buzzzZzz right next to your ear and it scares the crap out of you cause you think its a bee. Well its even worse when riding a difficult trail, but thankfully this thing blocks your ears from that, another great thing I never expected.

Great product overall =]
NIce Brain Bucket
I am ordering my second one of these as I just took a major header and cracked the shell. The helmet did what it was designed to do and took the impact.

This helmet is very light and comfortable with good ventilation. My only problem with it was the center visor screw. It stripped out easily as it was just plastic. I replaced it with a metal one and was able to get it tightened down properly.

Giro has excellent customer service as well. I broke the visor after knocking the helmet off my handlebars and Giro shipped me a new one free of charge.

Giro 2012 Women's Manta Mountain Bike Shoes (White/Silver/Plum - 38.5)
Performance that rivals more expensive shoes with comfort and style that cant be beat. The Manta combines a supple microfiber upper with a durable DuPont Zytel nylon outsole that is comparable in stiffness to shoes with more expensive carbon fiber outsoles. Aggressive, dual-density lugs give excellent traction in dirt and mud, and the entire outsole offers greater fatigue resistance than traditional nylon outsoles. A supportive EVA footbed with Aegis anti-microbial treatment enhances comfort and fit, which is adjustable via the classic combination of a micro-ratcheting buckle and two straps. Plus, its built with the same precision fit as our premium shoes, which have made Giro the fastest growing brand in cycling footwear.

Great For Commuting
I finally decided to go for clipless pedals and real bike shoes for my daily commute to and from work. I needed shoes that I could comfortably walk in from my building bike racks to the gym (about a block away). These shoes are perfect for my needs. Cleat installation was easy and the shoes are designed such that the cleat holes are covered by the inner liners, so that water won't get through. Although the shoes are stiff, the recessed cleat design allows me to walk normally without worrying about messing up the cleat. The velcro straps and ratcheting strap are easy to adjust and the shoe is pretty comfortable. I wear a 8.5 in street shoes and a 40.5 in these fits me perfectly - quite snug, but not too tight. I've only been using them for about a week, but so far, so good. I would recommend them to commuters.

Decent but hard time getting correct size
Had to odrer 3 times to get correct size. Don't use amazons sizing chart it doesn't match Giros sizes. Go to Giro and see what size you really need. Plus, shoes run extremely small and narrow. I am an easy to fit narrow size 10. However with this shoe I had to go full size larger to get a good fit. Shoe is a bit puffy in material and rubs on crank with the sligtest foot pivot. I usually wear Sidi shoes. I liked the price, so i will see how they last. Shout out to Masherzs for being extreemly workable in getting me the correct size. They have excellent customer service and I will look for products I can oreder from them in future. Thanks Guys.

Giro Athlon Mountain Bike Helmet (Medium, Matte Black/Charcoal)
The Giro Athlon Mountain biking helmet crushes the racecourse with speed and style - and features the new Roc Loc 5 fit system. After more than ten years of refinement, this ground-breaking fit system provides an entirely unique use experience with an unmatched level of comfort, stability, adjustability and weight savings. With Roc Loc 5, you can easily dial-in both fit tension and adjust vertical position with a single hand. Just twist the dial for a tighter feel on tough terrain, then back it off a notch and relax across the flats or a warm climb. Even with these remarkable features, Roc Loc 5 is still 40-percent lighter than its popular predecessor, Roc Loc 4. Roc Loc 5 systems is: 1) Micro Dial. The heart of the Roc Loc 5 is this ratcheting, micro-adjusting dial. A simple, two-finger twist of the Micro Dial opens or closes the retention system and each click is audible. 2) Three-Position Vertical Fit - It's never been easier to change vertical positions and fine-tune fit. We incorporated a three-position bracket that features 15-millimeters of precise up/down movement. Like the Micro Dial, this system can be adjusted without removing the helmet. 3) Carefully crafted ergonomic arms are shaped to be as comfortable as possible, yet work flawlessly with Giro eyewear (what we call Super Fit engineering). 4) Dual Pods - These two panels are designed to firmly grasp the back of your head while comfortably cradling the occipital lobe. Strap management - with Roc Loc 5, your helmet straps are woven through the fit system, so they are always in the perfect position. Complex Internal Design - Dozens of small parts work together seamlessly to provide exceptionally user-friendly adjustment. Minimal and Light, yet Strong - Although this fit system is 40% lighter than its predecessor, it's much stronger. In testing, Roc Loc 5 performs flawlessly, even after 6,600 cycles (equivalent to 3 years of riding with 3 round trips per day).

Great Helmet ...
From searching for hours for a helmet, I found Giro to be a leader in helmet design. I liked the look of the Athlon from the start. If you have a dealer near you, I would highly recommend trying on before buying. I saved $30 buying from Amazon, & love the helmet.

The adjustments are very easy to make, and I am rarely aware that I'm wearing my helmet. Very light/comfortable, & would recommend to a friend.

Love It!
OK so pretty much all helmets are the same in my opinion when it comes to protecting your head. I like this helmet because it is very comfortable. This is my mountain biking helmet so it is heavier than a road helmet but still comfortable. The helmet is very cool and fits nicely. It is very secure feeling and several steps up from my Trek Vapor helmet. I have a Giro Prolite and Ionos helmet and Giro makes a quality helmet.
Good!
Is a good helmet, comfortable and easy to adjust.
Just did not like the logo and brand are stickers, easy to unglued.

The Hex fuses a muscular, progressive style with the versatility you need for aggressive trail riding. Its stocked with all of the features needed to take on the mountain, including the sure comfort and stability of Roc Loc 5 and tool-free adjustment of our P.O.V. visor, making it a great choice for riders looking for a rugged all-mountain helmet. In fact, many riders swear it's the best helmet for the money, hands down.

This will do for now
Pros:

Air ventilation is truly excellent, fit is snug and comfortable, feels very light, the visor does not chatter in the wind, the helmet's design is fairly stylish.

Cons:

The straps often need to be pushed away from the back of my ears, the rubber part of "overmolded arm" on the RocLoc system inside the helmet interferes with the back tips of my glasses.

The helmet is used mainly for my daily commute. The RocLoc system makes the helmet fit well but at the expense of not being able to wear sunglasses comfortably. I wanted to try the Giro brand after I wore out my excellent Bell X-Ray helmet. When this Giro Hex wears out I will replace it with a new Bell X-Ray.

Giro Hex
This helmet is excellent. I was using a Pro-Tec BMX/Skate helmet, which is super safe, but has no ventilation. I would go on 15+ mile cross country rides and get gnarly headaches afterwards from the heat. This would happen even when the air temperature was reasonable. I would keep an extra water bottle with me just to pour on my head to cool down. The Hex has completely solved this problem. It's also pretty comfortable. The only complaint I have (and it's a small one), is that the straps are a little funky at first. I just had to get it adjusted right and wear it a few times, now they're not a bother. I can't say anything for safety since I haven't (and hopefully never will) tested that function of the helmet. This is my go to helmet for mountain or road riding. I guess it's not as aerodynamic as a "road helmet," so it's a little noisier and it's probably not hip. But it works for me. Definitely recommend it if you are looking for a good helmet at a decent price. I went with the weird...
Great fitting helmet, looks good, great retension system
Been a fan of Giro helmets for awhile. Have used multiple Giro helmets for my road cycling and wanted a dedicated helmet for mountain biking. With the new Roc Loc 5 system offered on this helmet I jumped at it and am very pleased with the results. Roc Loc 5 is a huge improvement over Roc Loc 4 and I feel its the best strap system available today. Helmet size Medium fits great for my head. Plenty of ventilation. Great price for a Giro quality helmet.
