Default Icon helmets...
Anyone here use an Icon helmet? I am in the market to replace my FF helmets after insurance company took mine.

I have been looking at the Icon Alliance to replace the FF helmets.

I have a silver alliance I picked up on eBay new for $110. I got the dark shield too.

Awesome FF helmet! Sizes run small so read the sizing charts.

Love mine!

Go with the Airframe, you'll be happier.

It beats the Alliance in terms of air flow.

They just dropped the new model. Airmada. I think that's the route I'd go...

Yep, I run their gloves and the Stryker Rig as well. Can't wait to pull the trigger on one a their jackets!
For me, my head fell into the L size range. I put on both, L and M... Bought the M. Felt a better fit.

I've been wearing one for 6 months, since insurance took my Shoei after my accident. I've been very happy with it. I'd buy another. They do run a little small. My Shoei I wore a Large. My Icon is an XL.

Love my Alliance on long rides. Good air flow and the tinted shield cuts down glare. Wish the helmet would keep me warmer though when it gets cold out.
Other than that no issues.
