    What? Do you own a mirror?

    I have one. It’s ace. Small, comfy, hot but like a sponge so that’s ok.

    Mine arrived today. I love it. It sits on my head so much better than the 661 recon I had and it’s so light, it seems comfortable and covers down the back of the head well. Will ride out tomorrow morning to see how it performs.

    Haha, yeah but all the photos on the net are of the helmet not riders in one.

    I love mine too, light, looks ace and offers laods of coverage so gives you a bit more confidence.

    Ooh widge34, you could help me; how does the sizing compare between the 661 recon and the enduromatic? I just about fit in the s/m recon? Do you reckon I’ll get away with s/m with the urge? I’m really close to the border if you know what I mean.

    I bought one on a whim earlier on today, I’m right on the borderline of the sizes so went for the L/XL also coming from a 661 recon, never been entirely happy with the recon but it has saved my head twice so can’t complain!

    I love mine. but only worn it in winter so far so the hot thing may bite me in the “summer”

    I love mine. have worn it under a Spanish sun and it wasn’t too hot.
    However, the 2012 ones are damned hideous. Kind of puts me off getting another.. but I’d buy one in a heart beat if it was the 2011 model. 😛

    Love mine, soooo light. Only tried it in winter so far, so can’t comment on the heat bit.

    Have they changed it for 2012?

    Very hot, poor fit system inside.
    Lightweight piss pot with cheap plastic bolt on visor.

    I love them. On my 2nd.

    My 661 recon was a s/m, but if you are saying you could just about fit into the 661 then I would go for the l/XL urge. My head is 57cm and the L fits me. Hope this helps.

    Used on for the last 12 months but just replaced it with the Giro Feature.
    Fits better,rentention systems better and it’s no where near as hot.

    This video features on being worn by someone who looks like he knows what he’s doing. FWIW I think it’s an extremley comfy helmet. Only stopped short of buying one because I didn’t think I would be able to mount my light on it, on closer inspection I would have.

    Nothing here yet either, the jacket I ordered from elsewhere afterwards arrived yesterday.

    Listed as “standard” delivery, at £5 you’d think it would be here by now.

    i ordered one of crc but the helmet was faulty, as the polystyrene was much thinker on one side, junk wouldn’t put one on my head.

    Still nothing, had the processing email, might fire off an email.

    Been using one for about 6 months now. Does get hot, but really only on the slowest of climbs. As long as you’re moving then I think it vents pretty well.

    On the down side I found that the straps work loose all the time, I got around this by pitting a stitch through them once I had them adjusted nicely.
