Hi guys,
Being in Scotland, the ability to try stuff on is limited, but I need a new lid. I've decided that I'd like a Masuri Vision Series, as I like the design, safety and adjuster they offer. My old helmet was a GN Atomic, which was comfy and easily tweakable via the dial at the back. (I have thick hair, so sometimes I need to loosen it if I need a haircut.
Anyways, I'm a 58cm scull, this puts me in between sizes. Do I need a small, or a standard???
Cheers.

I'd always go up a size with helmets, did that with the Kookaburra I have now and I can get it comfortably tight enough. Down a size I think it would either be uncomfortable or just wouldn't fit.
-
For a 58 cm head, go regular size.
Do buy better pro foam and a swappa band too. They really help.
It is my bugbear with the masuri lids that the supplied foam is horrible but they have decent foam available.
-
Go for standard mens size Medium. I have a 56cm head and it still fits me quite well. If i try small mens size it is too tight
-
I found the vision series to be significantly smaller than either the OS2 or old Masuris, guessing it's at least partly down to head shape but I can't get them on at all.

Cool, thanks guys. 👍👍👍

Where do you get these mate? the standard issue foams in mine are starting to come loose so need new ones and wouldn't mind upgrading

I was a standard mens in old masuri models, standard mens in vision series, and large mens in Os2

Head shape seems likely culprit then - I was large with room to spare on the old ones, just squeeze in to large in OS2 and a large Vision Series is painful to try on. Shame as I quite liked the adjuster.

Looking further into it, it looks like I'm stuck with the vision series, as I can't for the life of me find adjustment foams for os2 anywhere. 😢

I have the padding for the os2, £10 a set plus postage
