Helmet with flat top?

Post by bryanska »

I have a bicycle helmet with a flattened top. It's nice because it makes my head look smaller. I have a big head for my body type, and most helmets make me look like a Spaceball.

Does anyone make scooter helmets that help with that "melon" look?

Looking like a spaceball beats eating 30mph asphalt.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

Your pretty * stupid to make that statement. Go hit a tree head on going 30 without a helmet, maybe I'll come see ya in the hospital. Or lay the bike down going 30 and see what happens when your face eats 30mph asphalt.

Just get a dirt-bike helmet, they look cool, and are comfterble. And in some places, it's the law that you have to wear a helmet!!!

JPHelmets dont have XL any more.

JPhelmets are not the same as those ebay rip offs, i bought one of those ebay rip offs and i wish i didnt, waste of time, waste of money.
