So...g/f is finally getting a bike. 15.5 Womens Stumpjumper HT. Along with that, she's getting helmet. I brought home a Bell Sweep R for her to try on and, even with a small, it was a little big. The plastic bits that go above the ear are rubbing the top of her ear. I know it's going to bug her, so now I'm looking at other options...

Anyone know who makes the smallest Small helmet? I find my Pneumo to be a little more shallow than my Sweep R, so I'm hoping some Giro will fit a little better. What about Specialized's helmet? How do they run?

Hoping to avoid that. All the kids helmets look a little to juvie for her tastes.
Function over form. Tell her to get over it, not everything works out as cute especially in the bike world. It's the unfortunate side effect of being the minority.

hot damn, the SWORKS fits very nicely. Giro was too deep, like the Bell. Now I just have to call up our rep.

PS - These new SWORKS helmets are pretty damn nice.

PPS - I look very manly. Especially after I shave my legs.


And arms.



and wax my eyebrows.
