What customers say about "Features"
Giro Saros Road/Racing Bike Helmet
  • This helmet fits nicely and keeps my head cool even in Texas.
  • The adjustment knob on the back strap as well as the chin strap fits the helmet very nicely on my head.
  • This helmet has a nice locking system that works well.
  • Adjustment is easy and when fitted correctly it is surprisingly comfortable for a helmet.
  • I like the easy adjustment knob on the back as I can adjust fit while I'm riding with ease.
Giro Monza Road Helmet - Performance Exclusive
  • Looks 'pro' fits well and is very effective at keeping your head cool.
  • It looks good, feels very comforatble and is a very reasonable price.
  • Excellent padding system - vertical pad at the forehead rather than horizintal.
  • With other inferior helmets at the same price point I was getting heat rash on my forehead on long rides. Not with the Monza.
  • The styrofoam is exceptionally thick so this would be a great helmet to have if you were in a serious crash.
