Having decided to get a new helmet (with a ti grille) to replace my puma, i managed to get a great deal buying my mates masuri ti off of him before he went to Aus. Having tried it on quickly before it seemed like it would be fine, but in reality it doesnt fit my massive head. I could probably use it, but its probably not ideal. I even went and tried a brand new masuri on to see if this one wasnt the largest size, and that didnt fit either.

So not only now do i have a puma ballistic and a masuri, i still want to get a new helmet. First of all, does anyone else have  similar problem and can recommend a helmet to use? I measured the circumference of my head at wortk with a bit of string and a ruler and it was roughly 64cm (masuri largest being 63cm).

Secondly, can a masuri ti grille work with any other brand of helment? I like the traditional shaped albions, was wondering if i could fit the girlle onto that?

No masuri grills don't fit onto albions mate.

64cm? You need to talk to Ayrtek for a custom made! I find 63cm helmets a bit tight with a 62cm head, and I've not seen any of the big manufacturers offer anything bigger than 63cm.

thats exactly what i thought. My measurements werent the most accurate but id say im bordering on on the largest of off the shelf helmets. my puma fits ok, but you cant add a different grille, and having picked up a lid with ti it feels so much more lighter and comfortable.

whilst an ayrtek might appeal, custom build usually adds more cost. whilst the puma isnt an issue, like i said id like something lighter. as far as i know, there is nowhere local to me to try an ayrtek. regardless of it being custom made or not, id like to get a feel for the product first.

i guess people have been telling me for year that i have a big head, so it shouldnt come as much of a surprise!!!
