Helmet Help!?!?
I am having serious issues trying to find a helmet to wear (have a small head XS-S). I have tried full face, and it just doesn't work for me, feel like a spaceman and is just too much (feel closed in). I have a ACC half helmet (the non-DOT), you know the ones that only failed the penetration test, then we found out they all failed most everything.
I need some halfway decent protection without wearing a basketball, needs to be light. What do some of you wear? Does anyone on here have one of the new Bell 500 Customs?
Thanks!

If your concerned about the DOT issue, and you seem to be....Justified Defiance has a huge selection of pretty small DOT compliant helmets, not to mention some original DOT helmets from the 70's that are not necessarily DOT now, but they sure were when they were sold as new.

I have a Justified Defiance vintage Shoei... it's the ****, I just never wear it. I'd offer to sell it to you but I think it's too big for you.

Try on helmets at a Cycle Gear.
Yes Arai and Shoei have different shapes. Some have said you have either an A or S shaped head.
I wear an HJC as this fit my XL head.
Light weight....buy a carbon fiber helmet.
