So what's the decision? Is the carbon fiber the best bang for the buck? I could care less about looking like a mushroom, but I have a Bell Drifter and HATE it. It weighs a ton, and don't seem to stay on my head. So I'm just looking for something light weight that looks decent. I'm looking at the Outlaw helmets. I like the price of the fiberglass, but I want the smallest I can get.

I just ordered this fiberglass outlaw yesterday. My buddy has the "original" carbon outlaw that "everyone wants", so we can do a compare of sizing.
Now... to decide which size NovDot to order from Licks. Can anyone who has a Licks AND a NovDot tell what size you wear in each of those?

The Lick's is the NOVDOT, and according to the size chart I was a M. Came in the mail, fit OK, but I was looking for a more snug fit. Emailed AJ at Lick's, and he recommended the S. Exchange was super easy, and the S fits great. Head measures 22"/56cm. I wear a 7 1/8 if that helps. Email or call AJ - he'll steer you in the right direction.
I normally wear a M but the size chart recommended a L and the L fit well.
I also had great service from AJ. I had a snap issue and it was handled very quickly and professionally.
I always wore a half helmet before and this is my first 3/4. It will be hard going back to the Outlaw in the hot weather (if I do).

Anyhow: I've seen a number of posts like yours, where the size chart tells you one thing, but the size smaller fits better. I wear an XL in Shoei, and seems like XL in Outlaw (my friend's L was too small). The Lick's chart says I should be XL, but I'm likely to order a L. I will call them today and put in an order.
