Well, actually I crashed straight into a tree - don't ask 
The helmet did its job well and took most of the force of the impact, but destroyed itself in the process. I'm left with a bruised forehead, sore neck, and the need to buy a new helmet!
So, my Bell Slant Large has served me well for a few years, and I go looking online for the same. What I find is that most reasonably priced helmets, including the Slant, are now "Unisize" - what's that all about?
Having a 61cm head, and always having to go for large helmets in the past, I'm very dubious that one helmet can fit all - well.
The more expensive helmets still seem to come in Small, Medium, and Large, so is this just an attempt by the manufacturers to get us to upgrade in order to get a decent fit?
Anyone with largish head had experience of the unisize helmets - any good?
, so I tend to stick with specialized, as they will give you a helmet for less then half price if you send them an old battered one.
, but then I looked at the small print ...
- surprised 'you know who' hasn't caught onto this thread yet - maybe he's still out for a ride. All I can say is I'm bloody glad I was wearing a lid - there I've said it (now dives for cover and waits for the usual STW helmet vs no helmet argument to erupt!)
