Helmet Medium
Sep/090
Is it better to get a slightly larger helmet or smaller (motorbike)?
Im buying a helmet online soon and i measured my head, and its 57cm's above my ears all the way round. According to a chart im a Size Medium, but im wondering if i should get a small size just so it figs snug?
Any advice would be amazing, thanks.
Measure your head accurately and use that measurement. If a helmet is too tight you will be very uncomfortable within minutes, unable to put on glasses, no doo-rag, and itchy hair.
Too loose of a fit lowers the protection. My advice is to go to a store and try them on.
