Helmet Question

[Aggie_Ama]

I have a Giro Pneumo that I bought online last year and just started wearing...and it hurts at the front of my (ever recedeing) hairline. BUT, I've glued in thick pads of moleskin and now it's doing fine...

Maybe I should try that! My Atmos makes an obnoxious pressure point the front of my right forhead. I have even had DH check to make sure I have it centered, apparently I just have a smaller left side? Anyway, it is my only complaint on the Giro fit is less padding in the very center of the front.

I had to roll up the moleskin pretty thick... To make it as thick as the standard pads

Hmm, I'd worry about you if it was the back of your forehead.

Hehe. Top? Near the hairline? I have never been good with directions, I still have to do the L is left with my hand sometimes.

Hmmm. I must've been thinking about motorcycle helmets, which is definitely seven years from manufacture or five (not three) from purchase.

Still, AFAIK it's the same type of EPS and the same issues involved with its degradation...

one thing though, the really expensive helmets do not protect you any better than the cheap ones. they are often just more aerodynamic and have more holes.
