This helmet is very comfortable

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2023

I was not sure if I should get this helmet or the Giro Aries. I could not determine the difference by reading the description. I feared that the helmet might be too small but the helmet and the chin strap has plenty of room. During Covid it was hard to find bike products so I ended up buying a low-end Giro helmet that even though it was a (large) it felt very small and the chin strap was very short. I am happy to report that this helmet fits like most Giro helmets I have worn for over 20 years.It fits perfectly. This helmet is very light and comfortable. Thank you!

Not for fat round heads like mine

Wasn’t wide enough despite my head being within the specified perimeter length. Wish they had specs on the width but they don’t

I bought this on Friday, and I got a car accident on Saturday. I slammed to the ground after hit the car. I did not worry about covering my head during clash. This helmet is the most comfortable helmet. also safest helmet so far in my experience. It is quit light, feel forgot I am wearing it. and great ventilation.

Very Good Very Safe Bike Helmet

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2021

Color: Matte Black/RedSize: MediumVerified Purchase

The Giro Helios Spherical is a very good helmet, lightweight, adjustable, latest safety features (MIPS) for best head protection, and a very comfortable fit (no hair snags) for short or long rides. Pricey but worth it for the extra safety and easy adjustability. Highly recommended.

Super light weight & comfortable

Super light weight, comfortable, and well vented. Perfect for hot climate. My second road bike helmet since I began riding again a couple years ago. This is a life changer. I don't even feel like I'm wearing a helmet. It's that light.

Great Helmet Except for Two Things...

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2022

Color: Matte Black FadeSize: MediumVerified Purchase

Fits great, cups the head well and inspires confidence in safety by simply blending in and making it feel like you're not wearing a helmet. The piece of mind that the spherical tech gives is nice and paired with the fact that it fits like a glove with a huge range of adjustability is even better.

BUT

1. This helmet is pretty loud when you're moving at speed. Like really loud.
2. There really aren't any perfect places to store your sunglasses. I love having a spot in the vents that you can slip your sunnies on those early morning rides to have them handy for when the sun comes over the hills. I've tried with 100% Glendales and S2 along with a pair of Smith Arena and haven't really gotten them in a spot where they're securely out of the way. Bummer, but ultimately the safety and fit overcomes this.

Comfort and safety with a sharp design

Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2024

Color: Matte Black/RedSize: MediumVerified Purchase

My size is either a medium or large, depending on the brand as I measure just under 59mm. This Giro Helios Spherical medium fit me very well and the adjustments to get the correct fit are perfect for comfort and safety.

Fit Is Very Good

Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2021

Color: Matte White/Silver FadeSize: LargeVerified Purchase

Like all Giro helmets I've tried on, this fits exceptionally well. Although I like the inclusion of the ball and socket MIPS, I do not have any interest in testing if it works better than the more "traditional" MIPS insert that is on older or less expensive helmets. What I do like about the ball and socket design is that it feels much more like you are tightening the EPP to your head instead of just tightening the liner which leads to a more secure feeling fit. Price is higher than I would want to spend, but better to invest in a helmet than almost any other piece of cycling equipment.

Been using Giro helmets for many years, and time for a new one, and the Helios does not disappoint.
Great fit and light.

Worth considering

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2023

Color: Matte Black/RedSize: LargeVerified Purchase

It's a nice helmet, and the spherical, double-shell technology is cool. Size-wise, it runs a little big. I've always been a Large in helmets and hats, and I'm ratcheted all the way down with this one. This one is slightly more comfortable than my two Bontragers, although not quite as nicely finished. Of course, we buybthese mainly for impact protection, and I can't speak to the effectiveness of that.
