Brain buckets have to be fitted properly with/without a beanie.? I happen to have two beanies: a thin Nike for warm spring days and very common on the hockey rink. A warmer RED snowboarding cap for colder slope days. My helmet needs minor tweaking according to which "cap" is nesting on my coiff.? Helmet hair is a right to a pint at the end of the day ;)


Terryl: One of the things I like about the Giro 10 (that my Giro Fuse didn't have) is a thumbwheel adjustment at the back of the helmet for exactly that adjustment, much like a bike helmet.? I have a light SmartWool beanie that I normally wear, a Balaclava that I might need someday, and sometimes wear neither.? Each requires about one click of adjustment to get a nice, snug fit.

And a baseball cap in the boot bag takes care of the thinning helmet hair issue.   :(
