    Comments about POC Receptor Flow Bike Helmet:

    A great BMX/urban style helmet that isn't as ubiquitous as the Berns or the [make your head look the size of a watermelon] Nutcases. I got the turquiose color and it's identifiable for sure.

    It's my all-around bike helmet: commuting, road rides, cross, and mountain biking.

    The vents are better than average for this type of helmet.

    The velcro adjustment system works fine, but isn't as convenient as the systems on bern or nutcase helmets.

    The fit is much better than previous Bern and Pro-tec helmets I've used, but not quite as comfy as a Nutcase I tried.

    Comes with an extra set of pads and a nice storage bag, and the webbing and buckle are high quality and still feel new after about six weeks of daily use.

    Awesome helmet

    Comments about POC Receptor Flow Bike Helmet:

    I Love this helmet, I use it while i'm dirt jumping. POC has really cool colors on it, and there aren't that many people with POC helmets, so it avoids that awkward moment when you have the same helmet as another person. It has a great fit, with a helpful piece of padding in the back that lets you adjust the fit really easily and quick. Plus this helmet has really good ventilation, so you pratically never take it off to cool off your head. in the summer it actually feels better to HAVE IT ON! Also its really light weight, so together with the ventilation,you forget you have it on your head. its awesome because POC combined in mold with a normal foam helmet, so you have two layers in your helmet, without the bulk. I am not disappointed, and will be a long POC fan.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
