Helmet questions
I can't seem to find a helmet I truly like in the local area and am thinking about just ordering one online.
My first question is, how would any of you suggest I ensure that I order the correct size? If sizes are pretty much standard between designers, I figure I'll just try a few on and order whichever size fits best.
My second question is, is there any manufacturer I should stay away from?
I'm looking at half helmets with visor and pull down shield; flat black if no design, glossy if a design.
Thoughts, and thanks for your replies.
Doh! I just realized I posted this in the wrong area.

I was just up at Bike week and found a very comfortable and affordable half helmet that J&P sells, and it does have the retracted tinted visor that hides away in the helmet when you don't want to use it.
in fact it was soo comfy that a buddy of mine bought one also, and when the wife is ready for a new one, she is going with it also.
it was this:

I am pretty sure they make it in flat black as well as some other options too, pretty lightweight and very comfy on the ol noggin!

as for fitment, most manufactures will tell you to take a tape measure of your head and then match that up to their sizes from their website.
