 Snug but secureOct 06, 2008
I've got a small head, so finding a bike helmet that doesn't fit like a five gallon bucket is a bit of a challenge, but this fit fine for the most part.
My only complaints are that it's a real pia to get the straps adjusted right (although the back circumference type adjustment is a snap), it was really irritating the top of my head (solved by using all three of the extra pads on the crown of the helmet to keep it from rubbing my apparently non-aerodynamic head raw) and the cheek straps lay a little weird.
Overall... I didn't notice it beyond the first few moments on my bike, which is saying a lot, because I hate helmets, so it does the job, and really, for the price, it's hard to be picky. The graphics are nice, it catches attention on the road, and after getting it fitted right its fairly easy to snap on and off without losing skin.
I'd give it a 3 stars for comfort and 4 stars for overall value. If you've got a small head that's mostly round, this would absolutely be the helmet for you. For us egg heads... it'd be nice if Giro threw in a couple more sticky pads.
 Cute, but too smallSep 26, 2008
I bought the pink and white flower helmet and it is very cute. Unfortunately, it is too small...which is very disappointing because I really wanted it to work out.
 Great HelmetSep 16, 2008
This helmet is light and comfortable. It's adjustable to just the right size without sloppiness or pressure points; once on my head, I forget it's there. It's also sleek and attractive.
Fantastic helmet!Sep 07, 2008
Not only is this helmet beautiful to look at, it is very functional. Thanks to the easy to adjust straps and one-touch tightening system it fits perfectly. It is also light and maintains good airflow. Although the visor doesn't do much in the way of keeping the sun out of your eyes it does help a bit when you're riding in the rain. I LOVE this helmet!
Giro Skyla Sport Helmet -- Met all my requirementsJul 28, 2008
I bought this helment for a silly reason. I recently purchased a brand new expensive bicycle. I decided I wanted helmet that matched the bicycle colors which are teal and dark grey (no red). This is the only helmet I could find anywhere that was teal! I figured I would buy the helmet because of the color and hope the rest worked out.
I was very excited about the price and that Amazon shipped it free.
When the helmet was delivered, I was really excited to see that it was the EXACT color of the bicycle. Well, now that I had the right color, I figured I better find out how it fit!
The fit is fantastic. There is an easily adjustable band inside the helmet that you tighten or loosen until you feel you have a comfortable fit. The straps that come down over your ears and then clip under your chin is somewhat difficult to use. I had to shorten it quite a bit and it took some effort. This could possibly be a safety feature to make sure the helmet does not become loose.
The helmet is very lightweight and I don't even feel like I have it on. It also keeps my head cool. I used last weekend which was incrediby hot and although my forehead was sweaty, my head wasn't. I also wore it today after I took a shower and washed my hair. I put a bandana scarf on my head because I didn't want my wet hair in direct contact with the inside of the helmet. I didn't have any problem doing this and my head still stayed cool. It was 90 with 80% humidity.
The visor does keep the sun off my face somewhat, but I still wore sunglasses. As for quality or longevity, I don't know enough to comment on that.
Well, even you don't need to buy this for the color, if you want a comfortable priced-right helmet I suggest this one.
