About the Product
The Reverb’s™ classic lines are a perfect match to the sleek style that is driving urban cycling. The light-yet-tough In-Mold shell wraps around to the inside of the helmet to resist dents and dings from life on the streets, and a self-adjusting fit system eliminates the need to dial in the fit.
Classic urban style – you know it when you see it. A signature look from NY to LA to Minneapolis, our best-selling Brentwood continues to define urban cycling cool.

What customers say about "Key Specs"
Giro Reverb Bike Helmet
  • This helmet quite possibly saved my life. Giro gets a big thumbs up from me!
  • MUCH lighter than I expected. I'd say that it'd be easy to forget that I'm even wearing it.
  • Very lightweight compared to other helmets with fuller coverage and less ventilation, like this one.
  • The helmet is super light which i guess is good, as i heard that the quality of the material is very good.
  • This helmet was just what I was looking for. I wanted a simple design, suitable for a casual rider.
Bern Brentwood (VM3MBKVLXL) Summer Helmet with Flip Visor
  • As far as impact resistance, I hope never to have to test it, but the Brentwood seems extremely solid and Bern has a pretty good reputation for building quality helmets.
  • Most comfortable, sturdy, bike helmet I've had. Adjustable for perfect fit.
  • Good quality, the s/m size fit well my son who is 8 at maximum tightening.
  • Durable, stylish, lightweight every-season. Stays cool in the summer, yet padding keeps your head snug and comfortable.
  • It's also very durable so I know he will be able to use it for a long time. Highly recommended!

What customers say about "Features"
Giro Reverb Bike Helmet
  • It does definitely provide adequate ventilation.
  • Super comfortable, and has good air flow but will also be toasty in the colder weather.
  • I have what I consider a large head, but the medium fits perfectly.
  • The removable visor is a nice touch.
  • This helmet is super light-weight; the visor is better than any I’ve had on other helmets.
Bern Brentwood (VM3MBKVLXL) Summer Helmet with Flip Visor
  • S/M fits me like a champ and i can still have a beanie underneath.
  • As far the fit, it's very comfortable. I'm on the upper end of the "large" head size, so the rear head tension adjuster is maxed out on mine.
  • The strap is high quality and doesn't rub or aggravate my skin (an issue with cheapies).
  • The flip visor really is a pretty great extra if you ride in a lot of sunny weather.
  • This helmet looks as sharp as a bike helmet is capable of looking, and it fit my small head almost perfectly.
