Perfect fit, easy to adjust, secure feeling, and a nice minimalist flat gray color without gaudy ornamentation...also like the generous ventilation ports and detachable sun visor.
The best MIPS helmet I have owned in my 74 years...thanks!
This is my only helmet; I use it on my road bikes and my recumbent. I particularly like the visor, given that my eyes are pretty photosensitive; it helps a lot. It's a worthwhile piece of gear, does what it's supposed to do, and doesn't cost a fortune. I think it's a good value.
Its very comfortable, and easy to fit. I have struggled with the sizing of other helmet brands, the Giro was so easy to adjust and fit. The color is highly visible riding on urban streets. I would buy it again in a minute. As a matter of fact, I got one for my wife too!

My sole criticism of this helmet is the straps which I thought were poorly adjustable. I was able to replace them with the straps from an older helmet with just a little effort. I did not find the ventilation to be a problem, even though I live in the southern part of Georgia, a state not not for pleasant summers. I would buy this helmet again.
Helmet fits well and is very comfortable on but may not have enough room for balaclava or beanie come cold weather. The Highlight Yellow is very visible which is main reason for selecting this helmet. The visor is too short and too high to be of any use. The ventilation is not adequate for hot & humid conditions. This will be my commuter helmet. It is a good value.
This helmet fits my head well and is very comfortable. I'm concerned that there may not be enough room for skullcap or balaclava come cold weather though which could be a shame as this helmet seems better suited for cold weather. 1) The helmet is not as well vented as the Giro Pneumo it is replacing or the Bell helmet I had prior to that. It is noticeably warmer on hot days. 2) The visor is pretty much worthless. It sets too high and is too short to block any sun.
That being said it is a good value. The highlight yellow is very visible. I wish the straps were more adjustable.
