- Inspect your helmet regularly for signs of wear or damage
- Wear a helmet designed for your activity
About Giro Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry's toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too--in fact, pretty much anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.

Excellent fit, comfortable for fussy/sensitive child,

This review is from: Giro Flume Youth Bike Helmet (Misc.)
I bought a Giro Flume Youth helmet for my 3-year-old son (now almost 5; helmet fit is still comfortable and safe), in the red flame pattern. My husband is a somewhat serious mountain biker, who wanted a very safe helmet for our child; and my son is a very sensitive little guy (he hates crooked sock seams, grit on his skin, hats, etc.). I myself wanted something my little guy thought looked cool but that didn't have superheroes or advertising on it :) This helmet made everybody happy. Of course it is mandatory that our child wear it for biking; but the requirement hasn't been onerous, my son is happy to wear it on his cycle and often leaves it on for fun. The fit is adjustable, and (unlike some other helmets we've seen) is very comfortable even when snug enough to be safe and not to slip around. I highly recommend it and am back to buy a second to have on hand for visiting kids.

This review is from: Giro Flume Youth Bike Helmet (Sports)
I bought this helmet for my almost 2 year old son because he had grown out of his smaller helmet (the Specialized "Small Fry" which we also loved) even though the measurements said he should still be fitting it. This Giro fits perfectly, it has a nice adjustment feature that is very easy to use and he has plenty of room to grow! Before I bought it I did some research on different brands and this one had the widest range for head measurements so I'm hoping it will fit him longer. It looks awesome on him and he loves wearing it, and often doesn't want to take it off!

My daughter absolutely loves her lightweight helmet that keeps her safe too! She's fallen off her bike several times and the helmet held up wonderfully. No boo boo's here....
