My head is 55cm so on the crossover from X small 53-55cm and small - 55-57cm Problem I found was that the size differences are only very small as you said, about 2cm between each. Different manufacturers use different padding and sizing, so what's a medium in one was small in another. I took the hit on a little bit more expense and bought two sizes from DT, then returned the one that didn't fit. Spoke to them before buying them and they said this was absolutely fine. Maybe it costs you a few quid more but not much when you're talking about a £100 helmet, and it means you can get one that fits perfectly  ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

I've the open face version of thisRRS lid I too have micro head, and went for this in XS after trying a sparco lid in small and it being too roomy. That said - I think the 'small' RRS is smaller than the 'small' sparco, so I'd go for that RRS item in a small. (is it possible it write small any more times!?) ________________________________________ Rallye-RNurburgring article |
