        Great helmet overall. It's a little bit on the warm side in the summer but not too bad. Considering the price, it's a fairly nice helmet.

              The fit was okay, but still too wide for my narrow head. My kids said I looked like a mushroom. Going to try the POC--wish they offered it in-store so I could try it on first.

                Comments about Giro Savant Bike Helmet:

                Got this to replace a helmet that was stolen along with my bike. I'm a daily commuter, so I picked this one because it was the best fit out of the ones I tried at a couple different local bike shops, and I wanted to get one so I could quickly get back to riding.

                It does fit well and is quite comfortable, but if you're doing more than a leisurely ride it really heats up in there. Granted, I did have it out pushing hard on a 50 mile ride when it was 95 degrees out and I really heat up when I exercise, but it's still hotter than other helmets I've had. And it does get hot even if the weather and the riding are not so extreme.

                It's especially fun because when you take it off after a hot ride, a nice little splash of sweat pools up right above your eyebrows at the front of the helmet. Makes you feel really cool to take that off and have sweat just pour out from the top of your head. REALLY cool.

                Anyhow, if you don't heat up much when you bike then I'd say it's a great helmet, but for me not so good.

                    Comments about Giro Savant Bike Helmet:

                    I just picked this up from the Santa Monica store. After doing extensive research online, I decided on this helmet. Giro helmets don't look as clunky on your head and their locking mechanism is fantastic. Lots of vents to keep your head cool. The matte black on mine is nice and subtle. At half the price of some of Giro's higher end helmets, I don't know why you would spend more, unless you're a weight weenie or don't like the colors offered... Great buy!
