Helmet Woes....but not the purple kind

[losidan]

My six six one full facer arrived today...size xl but i think it is too small..feels pretty tight to say the least...my nose is just about scrapping the mouth trap area and it after a minute it was starting t hurt the sides of my head a little....now i aint worn a full facer for years but surely that cant be right??

I measured my head as per the six six one website sizing guide too...Am I doomed?

Can't you send it back and get the next size up?

[losidan]

thanks mike

sending it back for sure mate but i think i have the largest size already....i was wondering if six six one were "small fitting" and i should try anothr make?

Well i thought this at first when i bought my SixSixOne but then i wore it for a bit and it got alot better, alot looser

661 lids do come up small. i couldn't use one.

[losidan]

both interesting comments there guys...

can i ask what helmet you use bob?

[Moschops]

Giro and Troy Lee are good for sizes

[Bob_Acid]

Mines a Giro but its old so i'm needing a new one and would probably go for something else now.

I think the Troy Lee that I have is XL/XXL.

You might also want to try a large or XL THE helmet as I tried one of those on in medium, and although it was tight, my head still fit inside it.

I have a massive bonce and finding lids is difficult but I use an xxl Troy Lee, XL Fox and XL Thor lid  ##

  DINGO

Dingo,

your bonce is so large it has it's on moon!!!!

Seriously though, 661 are very small fitting and the chin/mouth piece always seem to sit pretty close to your face.

Fox, Troy Lee and THE in an XL would probably fit you loads better.

troy lee xl/xxl was too small for me
