this probably sounds a bit bonkers, but when I tighten the chin strap, it does feel nice and tight ON MY CHIN, but NOT on the helmet. as in, my chin is being pulled up towards the helmet, but the side straps feel loose between the clips and the actual helmet. so, feels tight on the chin, but the helmet is not being pulled down.

I had issues with the fit so what I did was completely deflate the liner, then put the helmet on and adjust the chin straps tight enough that helmet moved sideways when i shook my head but would not fall off (bounce/move up/down too much)...once you get there then start pumping it till it feels snug and no side to side movement...this is tricky because of the nature of the liner inside being smooth there will always be some movement so if you feel it start to rise let a little bit of air out and pump again...you will very quickly find out when it starts rising off your head..usually for me when i feel the helmet is rising i do quick push to let the air out and then one or one and half pump more is perfect fit...takes a little getting used to as well, I have found helmets always feel loose unless they are the kind with the adjustment dial on the back etc...

the bandanda works really well. helmet slips a lot less, and sweat absorptions is awesome. i had initially planned to instal the sweat pad on the front, but not anymore (I was also afraid of it messing up the balance of the helmet, and making it front-heavy).

After about a month and a half of consistent use, have to say, this is by far the best helmet I've ever worn. The service was obviously outstanding, but the product itself is now undoubtedly awesome, in my view. Nice work guys.

Any news on a Youth or Small Men's size with a titanium grille? I ordered a custom black one a while ago and disappointingly, it was just too big for my noggin.  ???

Every time I see a photo of Robin, a funky wah-wah guitar soundtrack starts up in my head.   :D

Matt yes we have the Youth model in stock now which has a range guide size of 55-57cm, they come with a steel grille but can have a Ti one added.

Being a Youth model they are VAT exempt so the RRP on them with a steel grille is £44.99 but are prob discounted through our retailers down from this.

If you wanted to add a titanium grille to it we usually charge £30 for an upgrade when purchasing with a helmet or £44.99 if purchased separately.
