Amazon.com Product Description
The Giro Indicator's confident style and superior ventilation are coupled with a modern design that complements every type of rider. As a result, the Indicator helmet is the perfect choice for riding downtown, up a technical climb, and everything in between. The helmet is built using Giro's in-mold construction, which fuses the helmet's outershell with the impact-absorbing EPS liner. Not only does this reinforce both layers, but the "exoskeleton" also allows Giro to engineer helmets that are lighter, more durable, and better ventilated. The helmet also includes 20 built-in vents, which thrust cool, fresh air over and around the rider's head while forcing heat and stale air out. And riders will love the helmet's snap-fit visor, which shields your eyes on bright, sunny days.

The Indicator bike helmet is carefully sculpted and size-specific, with an easy-to-adjust Acu Dial fit system. The helmet--which adjusts between 21.25 and 24 inches--weighs only 0.62 pounds and complies with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's safety standards for bicycle helmets.

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 sleek, stylish helmet that offered a superior fit while still meeting the industry's toughest safety standards. In addition, the helmet weighed half as much as traditional helmets, making it extremely comfortable. In the years since, Giro has advanced its helmets, which are extremely popular among progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are now worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Giro is based in Scotts Valley, California.

5 out of 5 stars Fits my needs perfectly   September 10, 2010
Jakester
I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a helmet since I don't ride a whole lot. This helmet seems just right: comfortable, very light, simple to unclip and easily adjusted for fit, at a great price. Can't speak to the effectiveness of its protection, I'm hoping not to put that to the test...


4 out of 5 stars Nice Helmet   September 7, 2010
H.A.E. (Madison, WI)
Helmet fits nicely and is light-weight. As others noted, the chin strap is twisted and I'm not sure I'll be able to fix that due to the construction of the helmet. Also, the visor is too short to be very useful. One nice thing is that I'm easily able to wear my hair in a ponytail with this helmet -- huge plus for me. All in all though, good helmet for the price. Looks much better on than my last helmet.


4 out of 5 stars good price point, seems to fit properly   September 3, 2010
Joseph Scalia (NJ, USA)
I have used this helmet for about one month and it seems to fit properly and no problems with it. I have no long term reports but my experience with bike helmets has been that they need to be replaced every two years if used more than a couple of times per week.


4 out of 5 stars Good basic helmet   August 24, 2010
Rexington
One thing I don't like is how the straps make a twist as they enter the adjustable connector on each side -- this causes the straps not to lie flat against my face (I have a pretty big head), which is slightly annoying.

Having said that, I purchased this helmet as a basic helmet, and it does that well. It's easy to adjust and has decent airflow. It's lightweight enough that I don't really notice it when I'm riding and is good for all-around road and off-road use.



5 out of 5 stars Happy with the purchase   August 23, 2010

Nice helmet for the price. The local sports store had this helmet but not in the color I wanted (want it to match my bike). Found it on here for cheaper. Fits well and is easy to adjust. Put the little blue foam pads it comes with inside for a more comfy/snug fit. My only gripe is the chin strap doesn't sit flush against the ears. It's a little annoying at first but you'll forget about it sooner or later.
