    Catlike helmets

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Can anyone comment on Catlike helmets (Spanish). I'm trying to track down a LBS that stocks smalls to try on. I know different helmets suit different head shapes. I was told by a LBS the other day that Giro, Met, Bell wearers tend not to fit into Rudy Project, Limar and Catlike as well. Has anyone experienced this?

    my experience is that Limar runs smaller than Bell/Giro. MET and Catlike don't import here, to my knowledge. for me it's good, since I am way too small for the b/g large , and their medium is a bit too much of a tight squeeze

    I wore a Bell Bella until it cracked in my crash a few weeks ago, and I replaced it with a Limar medium-sized helmet. Both fit fine on my relatively small head, though the Limar seems to ride a bit lower on my forehead than the Bell did.

    Well I got my Catlike Kompact Pro yesterday after trying on the small Bell options the LBS had. It is more comfy that my old Giro but I think that is more to do with the Giro being an old, bottom end model.

    Have not had a chance to take it outside yet but it was fine after wearing around the house all morning
