RE: [RC] helmets - Katrina Mosshammer

I have to agree. If you can find a vendor that has different kinds I would highly suggest trying them on to see what kind has the best fit for your head. I've never tried Tipperrary but mom has had troxels for years and I tried hers on, it gives me a headache. I have a really round head and the troxel is too oval for me. I have to use an International because it is more round than oval. So just try it on before you buy it. Good luck!

A slight warning for folks who might dash out and order the Tipperary online....I may be in
the minority of folks who hated the helmet.....I tried every size on at convention one year
and it just did not fit the shape of my head, very uncomfortable.....In the past I have had good luck with Troxel (which original poster found hot)..and my current favorite, the Aegis USSEPA or something like that....helmet....it has a fit-dial in back; and I find it very comfortable and light...also can be found online on sale for $39 on a regular basis....

Gotta send out another thumbs up for the Tipperary Sportage...coolest most light weight helmet I've ever owned.  I actually forget it's on my head and once even got in the truck to drive home after a day ride with it still on!  Luckily for me I have a snickering teenager who took delight in reminding me it was still on my head!
 
Funny though as said snickering teenager tried on my helmet and now she has a sportage too...can't wait til she gets in the truck with it on...payback ya know!
