Okay, got my SixSixOne Fenix Weave helmet in today... was wondering about fit questions. It's pretty hard like slightly painful on the hair pulling to squeeze my 22.5 inch head into a medium that is like borderline between a medium/large @ 22.5" however, once it's on, it's snug, with a teeny tiny bit of play. Not much. Don't feel like it's killing my head but fits snug on the cheeks and just enough room around the ears to breath. Should I go a little looser with a large or should I stick with the medium? I figure the pads will break in. Also, not crazy about the blocked view of my arms and such from the full shell but guess I could get used to it compared to a bare faced giro for 15 years...
Fitting Thoughts...?
P.S. Body armor finally ordered and on the way!!! Can't wait to start being a bad ass when it all comes in. Considering I had a bad fall three weeks back and skidded about 20 feet bare armed and survived my head pounding the ground with a Giro, and got up with some arm burns, a red cheek pounded into the ground mark and a tiny scratch on the leg, I can't WAIT to see how fast I probably can go when I know I can slam into the ground with protection... THIS is going to be fun! I am SOOO freaking stoked now!!! CAN'T WAIT TO GET OUT IN ALL OF IT!!!
Sorry, beat the taggers to the punch... hee hee heeeee!
