I shouldn't think so as they are easily squashed down if it's a tight fit

Very interesting review as I was confused between, Albion, Masuri and Ayrtek.... I was after a light weight helmet and as it stands Masuri looks good. Ayrtek is not out of the picture either....confused will be the correct word.

To sum it up for you, Ayrtek is easily the best helmet out there, it just takes a few nets to get used to!

Some want them some don't for example all 4 of the Derbyshire CC lids we had back for a return haven't used them and never asked for them.

Difficult to integrate the sweatpad into the bladder without havinf it as a stick on extra

Went for a Ayrtek Elite in the end. Long story but will put up a full detailed review(with photos) once I get the helmet . The story is about another exceptional service by Tom even when a retailer messed up lol...

Think I am having similar issues to several people here. When inflating the helmet always wobbles too much side to side if I shake my head until it started to rise from being over inflated. Are people using normal helmet sweat pads or Ayrtek ones?

Doesn't sound like you are using it properly. Put the helmet on, do the strap up tightly and then inflate the ACIS system. Haven't had a problem with doing it like that.

This is the deal with a Masuri or Albion, most people just use the chin strap as an after thought.
To get the fit right on an Ayrtek you need to get hte chin strap in place first, before you pump the air in otherwise it won't fit right.
