    I went on a helmet-trying-on rampage across town today. I found ONE helmet that fit well - a blue digital camo boy's helmet at Toys R Us It was for ages 8+, and it fit well with the dial turned to the smallest setting. I even tried on multiple helmets marked ages 5-8 that were too big. Kinda feel like a circus freak now - hey look at that lady with the tiny head!

    I was going to comment that my honey has a tiny little head too, but I checked her helmet and it's a 52cm, so no help there.

    Hmm. Just looking the kid's helmets at my LBS, there are some from Lazer and Bontrager that fit <52cm. Have you been able to find either of those brands to try on?

    I am going to order a Nutcase "little Nutty", their childrens' helmet. It looks like it should work, and it has a dial. A lot of kid's helmets in the stores don't, and they don't come close to fitting me. I found at least one review of the little nutty by an adult wearing it for herself. I do wish they carried at least one plainer non-kiddish style though.

    Just for posterity's sake, in case anybody else with a tiny head wants to know - the Nutcase Little Nutty fits PERFECTLY. I had to dial it down just a little, but not the whole way.

    I got this one. Couldn't really tell from the pic, I was kind of hoping it would be matte, but it's glossy.

    Awwww...I love it! I have the exact opposite problem with helmets - I need a huge size.
