Recommend me an XL helmet

[bruce1530]

Any recommendations for an XL helmet for road use. Ideally one that doesn’t make me look like an extra from Super Mario…

Most brands L/XL go up to 62cm. Some are larger. Currently using ( and need to replace) a Met Crossover, which goes up to 64.

Its entirely dependent upon the topography of your head.

I have a 63cm bonce. LBS is a specialised stockist - I recently bought what the label tells me is an "Align II" in xl, which whilst rated at 59-62, fits me with room to spare.

But as @Drago implies, trying them on is everything.

Yeah, going to do the rounds of the bike shops next time I’m in the city.

First you need to decide if you're a roundhead or an alien-oval head!

I'm the latter, recent good fits for me are large (62cm) Giro and Abus helmets.

I've a square head and Giro lids, very popular with the masses, feel like my head is in a vice.

Some people have that problem with m & s boxer shorts 🤔
