    Looking for a new helmet to replace my Giro Hex

    It’s the largest size and fits fine until it gets windy and I have to wear a headband/earmuff thingie, and then its uncomfortably tight

    I’ve tried a thinner headband but its still a bit of a squeeze

    Anyone know who makes bigger helmets so I don’t pass out due to restricted blood flow?

    Always found Giro do the biggest. I too have a melonous noggin

    One of the few to fit me: Specialized Max (up to 64cm – possibly a bit bigger in reality).

    I too have a large bounce. 7 3/8th hat size (the world would be a better place if more people not only wore hats, but also knew their hat size)

    Giro all the way.

    IIRC large giros go up to 63cm. Met go up to 64cm.

    Shape and size varies. I can’t wear Met for example.

    I have a Hex only thing I had that was bigger was a Bell Triton. Maybe a thinner cap??

    Fox transition fits my huge noggin, very comfy but less traditional lid

    LOL!

    He’s right. Mahoosive noggin, me. 62cm.

    I use a Xen on the MTB which I think is more comfy than the newer replacement, the Xar.
    I also have a MET Predatore which is especially made for big heads. It’s more ventilated and actually truly colossal, but not as comfy, or as well made. I don’t think you’ll find bigger though.

    I’ve got a biggish napper, and my 661 Recon is capable of going much bigger.

    Like.

    He’s right. Mahoosive noggin, me.

    It causes an eclipse. Scottish people hide in it’s shade, when the sun comes out.

    Peter did you manage to fish that Chinese satellite out of yer ear?

    Fox Flux comes up pretty big.

    Hex & Flux were best fits for me, went with the Flux.

    I’ve got a planetary noggin as well and helmets are really hard to find. I’ve been using a Xen and an old E2 and have just got a new XAR. I think that the XAR is slightly bigger sized than the old Xen / E2.

    Met Crossover goes up to 64cm. The new blue colour looks ace too.
