Thanks for the heads up 😀

I've ordered a S/M but Hotlines (who actually say March) and CRC both say no stock so I'm not holding my breath that it'll actually turn up.

Thinking of buying one of these. What's the sizing like? I have a 58cm head so can chose either. Think I read somewhere that they are generously sized so could go for small.

Did you find one? Dartmoor cycles have a couple.

They have stock and were cheaper than CRC.

I always bought s/m with Giro helmets and did the same with these. Fits great. Love the dial adjuster on the back.

I had a small/medium giro feature until I cracked but they went up to 59cm. The ixs goes from 54-58 and 58-62 and I'm a 58.

I actually have a Bell Super at the moment, but I don't find it very comfortable.

Any advice on the sizing? Should I go for s/m or L with my head size between the two

I take it Dave you have a bike shop? So if helmet didn't fit, I could send it back?

Reading a few more reviews I'm a little concerned that the s/m may be a tad small, as it sounds like helmet comes up a little small on sizing. Oh well will have to wait and see.

They don`t fit me 😐 Must have a funny shaped head.
The s/m is too tight across my head(ear to ear)
The m/l is too big, sitting down on my ears which is very uncomfortable 🙄
The search continues.....

Well the helmet has arrived. It fits me perfectly. Its lighter and more comfortable than my Bell Super.

Really liking mine. Certainly feels light too. Fits me really well and nicely ventilated. Quality seems top notch. Looks nice on too.

The ratchet/retention system works really well too. Very pleased with fit and comfort. Will try it on trails on weekend.

I do like mine. You will need to push the visor up if on steep stuff. Gets in the way a bit, my one minus point of it.

You can adjust the back fasteners apparently to tilt the helmet back more. I like the way the helmet properly wraps around the back of your head.

@coogan, counting the sleeps 8)
