Had a RSI which was a good helmet, upgraded to an X-Spirit which is an amazing helmet, wrecked that one and got the X-Spirit2 and thats even better.
If you fit the Shoei its a great helmet, if its not the right fit then it doesn't matter how good it is.
In the words of Juan-Manuel Fangio "Brakes they only slow you down"
Tried on helmets today.
Turns out my head doesnt like the new shoei range most of all in the cheak area and all the shark helmets are too close to my chin (about 10mm) which bugs me.
The HJC R-PHA10 is good fit but in xl 61-62 and not the 58-60 which is strange as my head measures 59.
Also bike shop gave me a price which is alot lower than any for the same helmet online even overseas.
I have evolved as a KB member.Now nothing I say should be taken seriously.
two things
darbis can't give you a price, if the local bike shop hasn't one on the shelf sometimes I've been able to go there and try different sizes on, and then pay for it at the shop, they're a wholesaler only
second point is if you do try a helmet on here, then import one there's a chance you may get a different 'cut' of helmet might be the same size but for a different shaped head, then you're stuck with it.
Helmets aren't worth wearing if they're the wrong size
Try and buy here too many people have been caught out
