Like you, I have a big noggin. Like you, I picked up a cheap Bell helmet
at my LBS. I got the XLV, which is what they had.
It's been a good helmet for almost a year. However, the adjustable pads at
the crown are simply falling apart. The velcro has separated from the

I have a Bern, and love the glove-like fit and the visor, but it is quite
