Currently using a Bell Triton as had to get helmet quickly for my big head (65cm)and it was the only one I could find at short notice that would fit! I'm not a poser but if anyone knows what these large helmets look like you will understand why I take it off when I'm on the train to work!!

Anyone recommend a sleek unembarassing helmet to fit a large head, £50 mark?!

My little brother has a bloody huge head and he is pretty happy with his giro hex.

Is your surname Burdus by any chance? Are you THE SiB? Ignore if not!

I 've got a huge heed and have 2 lids -

Met do one specifically for big heads (Like mine) called the Predatore. It's a nice, fairly well vented XC-style lid. The padding is only OK, but that's the worst I can say about it.

I've got a 62cm noggin and find a Giro Xen perfect in every way, though

BTW - nice to find someone witha bigger noggin than me, too! 😉

I got a Met Predatore recently and very happy with it, took 2 seconds to adjust it to a perfect fit

Large Spesh and Giro is usually up to 63cm so you might be out of luck, Fox Fluxs seem pretty roomy but can't remember the sizing on those.
