I've lost about 35 lbs this off-season, and you can definitely see it in my face. Yet when I tried my helmets on the other day they still fit fine.

Luckily most high quality helmets these days allow you to change cheek pads to a different thickness, which would be much cheaper than having to buy a whole new helmet. But if your lid's more than 5 years old it's due for replacement anyway according to the manufacturers.

 

As a follow up on this Neotec 2 - I made a 155 mile round trip to Arizona to get some lottery tickets today, and it was pretty windy. This was my first longish ride other than just around town This helmet is amazing. It's so much better than any helmet I've ever had I just ordered one for my wife. She's worth it. Well, most of the time anyway.

That's all. Carry on.

 

If my new RF-1400 were less than a year old, this would be a great deal. Hopefully more will get the benefit. Thank you for posting this.

 

I made such a big deal at home about how thrilled I was with it, spousal units RF1400 is getting replaced with one. In blue. To match her bike.
