kask Road helmets, or others

Are you planning on leading TdF?

Quite possible as the Team Sky rider in his avatar going on the last two years' results

anyone have problems with their glasses and the retention part at all?

I have one of these, but went to try one on before buying after reading quite a few comments about problems with glasses.
I had no problem at all with my Avenir glasses, and the retentions system is great- comfortable and feels secure even without the chin strap fastened (not that I ride it like that!)

I've had some problems with glasses and Kask helmets both the Vertigo and Mojito. Also I have found with the Mojito the wheel tightening can slip and smooth the teeth and the Vertigo I found the stickers came off easy and the pads took the glued Velcro off the helmet. In experience I would try another brand even though the helmets are comfy.

I have a Kask Vertigo and it is the best helmet I have had. The strap is very nice quality and comfy and the helmet stays put on your head, with my Giro helmet compared to the Kask it seems to sort of balance on top of your head where as with the Kask the locking system clamps it to your head but in a comfy way and you just forget your are wearing it.

I wouldn't pay the full £165 price for one but for £100 they are a total bargain and i wouldn't go back to a Giro helmet again.

I wear normal glasses when riding and I don't get any problem and I have had no problem with the pads either.

I have the kask mojito and it's the best helmet I've ever owned.

As @phil_hg_uk says too I'd never go back to any other helmet. This is imo the comfiest helmet - you don't even feel like you have it on your head.

I wear prescription sunny's when ever I ride and have not had a problem with the locking system

Same here. I have a Mojito after trying on loads. The Mojito was bang on. I even forget i am wearing it.

Not had any issues with it at all. Would buy another without any hesitation.

I need a 58 cm helmet. Kask are either too big or too small - the only one that fits is the one size fits all Dieci. I wanted to replace my Spiuk Nexion (fits like a glove) but the current one is adifferent shape and fits badly. after trying all the makes I could, cost not a consideration, I have bought a Specialized Echelon II, which fits. Medium 54-60. Specialized seem fairly unique in offering 3 sizes, which overlap. (The only other helmets I found that were at all comfortable were Tesco's... but design left a lot to be desired).

Ive got a Kask Vertigo and at first the clamp at the back gave me neck ache but now its fine . I got it from Sigma sport as a trade in for an old helmet and £100 .

Yea.. I all ways find it hard to get the right shape, some nice helmets about alas they don't all fit properly.
