Default Licks NovDot Sizing

I want to place a order for a NovDot but not sure how there sizing is compared to other helmets. I measured my head a few different times & keep coming up between 22"-22 1/4". So I get a Med or step up to a large? I have purchased 3 other helmets before & all of them where size Med. I don't want it to be loose so that wind gets under it at highway speeds. That is the problem I have now with my skull cap. Here is there sizing chart.

Helmet Sizes Head Size(Inches)

XS 19 1/8" - 20"
S 20 1/8" - 21"
M 21 1/8" - 22"
L 22 1/8" - 23"
XL 23 1/8" - 24"

Any of you NovDot users out there? Do they run true to size?

Do a search on "Licks NovDot". You'll get a lot of threads about them. Probably more than you want.

Maybe I will try a large & hope it fits. If not, I guess I can exchange it for a medium.

When you pull the string around your head should it be tight?

Chuck,

What did your measurement come out at?

I used the wife's fabric measuring tape and just snugged it, not tight. Measured right at 23-1/8"
