Giro Vasona MIPS Cycling Helmet - Women's

I am a 45 year old woman just starting to train for a sprint triathlon. I am definitely a newbie but this helmet works/fits perfectly for me.

This helmet works great. It is adjustable for size and I could even get my headlight on it for my evening riding.

I had an accident about 2 years ago and this helmet saved my life. My left temporal lobe would have been smashed as the impact was so severe, instead, I ended up with a broken clavicle, 2 broken ribs, and a puncture lung. When I later had the courage to take a look at my helmet you can hardly notice that there was just a small dent. Safety first and foremost, ride safe!

This is a great helmet that fits comfortably. I is on the small side, so make sure to check a sizing guide for a proper fit.

It’s a great helmet! Very comfortable and safe! Price was a lot better than the same one I bought at a bike shop for $65 a couple yrs ago. I like the ventilation and padding!

When I first took the helmet out of the box and tried to put it on, I was afraid it was too small! BUT I loosened the adjuster at the back and it fits perfectly, even over the headband I wear to keep my ears warm on chilly morning rides.

The Giro Vasona MIPS is a sophisticated MIPS helmet that protects you from brain injury as well as any otherhelmet on the market for a crazy low cost and its effectiveness is confirmed by Consumer Reports testing.The straps lay perfectly flat in an ingenious new design that makes it less likely that you will adjust thestraps improperly. It begs to wonder, why are there so many much more expensive helmets out there? The ventilation is first rate too and the weight is 296 grams so that is pretty light. The $300 Giro Aether helmet with no visor weighs 263 grams so big deal and yeh on a 100 degree day you may notice a little better ventilation. Yes the dual density foam may absorb impact a little better but MIPS is where the real safety is. So if money is no object, by all means splurge on the $300 Aether or the $260 Manifest that has a visor and uses the same spherical technology that ups the MIPS slip plane feature to the next level yet it will be still hard to prove this new and expensive technology really will reduce brain injury over the lower cost helmets by any statistically proven results.

The media could not be loaded. Features I like are you can off the padding to wash or for more head space also an adjustable knob for the back of your head so it doesn’t move down or up nice purchase putting on the helmet is somewhat comfortable but maybe cause I’m not use to wearing one yetWill do a follow up eventually.
