Saved My Head!Nov 22, 2008 I've had a Bell Ghisallo since 2001. It's comfortable, cool, and fits well (for some reason Bell fits my head, and Giro helmets to not). The big bonus came yesterday when I was riding to work and a car hit me. I broke a rib, punctured a lung, bruised my hip and shoulder, got a serious case of whiplash, and cracked my Ghisallo helmet. The helmet did it's job perfectly; My head is completely unscathed. The patron saint of cycling was with me yesterday for sure.
Crash tested TWICE!Jul 14, 2008 I ride a road bike and have really put this helmet to the test. I crashed about 3 years ago and landed on my head. The helmet did exactly what it was supposed to do...... it broke. My head was totally fine. I bought the exact same model.
Fast forward to last week. I am in a paceline going 25 miles per hour. One of the guys crashed in front of me and there was nothing I could do, but crash. I flew over the handle bars and smashed up everything. I think I landed on my head first or second, but I really can't say. I hit hard. My helmet broke...... perfectly. My head was totally fine.
I just received my third Bell Ghisallo helmet today. It is cool with the big vents and compared to some models, cheap. I never ride without a helmet and neither should you!
Good over allDec 21, 2007 We decided new helmets for the team. I am still pending to wear it for the first time, and I found a couple of things: plus: is easy to make adjustment including the GPS system. Possible minus: it has a angle on the plastic (material) next to the GPS system that might be a little uncomfortable when riding. I'll check for sure...

bell ghisalloAug 27, 2007 Cool. I live and ride in south fl, yes even in the summer with the heat index of 106. Bell helmets have always treated me well and while they also make the Giro brand as well the prices for Bell seem more reasonable. Honestly construction wise I think they are all pretty much the same. While my old Bell Furio fit my head more comfortably, the Ghisallo has more (and larger) vents and is definitely cooler. Plus I needed a new red helmet to match my new bike...

great helmetApr 01, 2007 I bought this as a replacement for the same model I've been using for about 2-1/2 years. It fits well, has plenty of ventilation, and is easy to adjust. I think the rear size adjustment is much easier to use than the Giro helmets, which is nice if you sometimes wear an earwarmer or skullcap underneath.
My one compaint is the downside of having lots of ventilation holes - it makes the wind noise loud, sometimes making you think a car is approaching when it's not. Better safe than sorry, I guess.
