What customers say about "Key Specs"
Giro Feature (2027GFM) Mountain Bike Helmet
  • The rear head protection was the other big selling point for me.. as I get all the protection I need to save my melon if I take a spill at high speeds on the side of a mountain.
  • As far as the impact, it did a great job. The hit felt soft. The helmet stayed together with the damage mainly being deep scratches on the cover, and what feels like a soft-spot in the area.
  • With the adjustable straps and the adjustable knob in the back, it fits perfectly.
  • I’ve taken a couple lite spills and branches and it held up amazing.
  • Build quality, comfort and sweet colors make it completely worth the money!
Fox Flux MTB Helmet
  • It fit perfectly out of the box without the need to install more pads. You can see the quality construction and quality materials.
  • The helmet feels fairly light on the head for the most part, but it has a very precise and tight fit.
  • I took a spill and landed right on my forehead and the visor even stayed on with no damage to the helmet at all.
  • It seems very durable, very good adjustment strips, and good material that would provide superb protection.
  • Amazing fit. So comfortable you will forget your wearing it. Light weight.

What customers say about "Features"
Giro Feature (2027GFM) Mountain Bike Helmet
  • The adjustable visor was a strong selling point for me and it performs flawlessly.
  • I really like how this helmet doesn't feel like it sits on your head, but it feels more like your head is in the helmet.
  • There is a ton of ventilation to keep cool and it weighs so little that it is quite easy to forget its even there.
  • The helmet was much cooler than I expected compared to my old S-works with tons of vents.
  • The fitting of this helmet is so good that it feels like it was molded on my head.
Fox Flux MTB Helmet
  • Lightweight, uses a different cinch system in the back (no dial) that makes it super easy to quickly tighten helmet for prior to a fast/techy descent.
  • Very well vented! Padding is removable (great because it starts to smell horrible after so long). Visor is nice. Comfort is a 10/10, fox provides extra padding to fit it to your noggin.
  • I like this helmet. It is very comfortable and seems to have good ventilation as I don't ever remember my head feeling especially hot.
  • It is pretty easy to adjust, you just put it on and use these two tabs to ratchet it down to a comfortable fit. The straps adjust as any other helmet.
  • It has good coverage and I do like the larger vents to cool me off especially after a long climb on my mountain bike.
