They both come in about 1100 grams if I remember rightly.

I have them both, and to be honest the fit is fairly similar on each. Don't think you can go wrong with either.

Before you do decide have a look at the Oneal Airtech, loads better helmat with new technology as oppose to a 10 year old mould

£110 and comes with the best locking device ever, no messing with d loops! Weighs in at under 1100g too

The two you mention are the same mould as the one Oneal sell for a RRP of £59.99

the two mentioned are completely different to each other so not sure where you're getting that from ❓

To the OP, both good helmets but if you care about looks at all get the Fox as the Giro's a bit fugly

Wouldnt worry about weight, IMO it's not an issue as the weighs arround your head rather than on it, and venting isnt the end of the world, I've a mid priced 661 so neither the lightest or most vented but it coped with XC rides in Spain. Just cut out the fabric liner arround the vents to encourage more airflow made ahuge difference.

If you are worried about weight. My mate has a Kali and it is VERY light.

As above a 500g piss pot is lot less comfortable than a 1kg FF.

If your riding requires a FF the weight (within reason) is not that important.

Very light and unobtrusive to wear. They have less lairy ones for £99 too.
