...Having had Giro helmets for a while, and my Helios hat being about 5 years old, I decided to buy a new hat a few months ago. I've worn it sevaral times a week for a while now, so thought I'd let you know about it !
The current advice on changing your bicycle helmet is to replace it after 5 years or so, even if it hasn't been involved in a crash, since pollution, UV light and weathering can apparently weaken its component parts over time. Not sure if this is just marketing hype to make us all spend more money (!), but I've only got one head, and wouldn't want to damage it over being stingy !
Giro has been making quality light-weight cycling helmets since 1985. Giro is the helmet of choice for world famous seven times Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong, as it is for winners of mountain bike world championships, cyclocross world...

...The Giro Atmos makes you look and feel great. The carbon fibre inserts make it very lightweight which makes it go un noticable so you don't feel as if you're riding round with a weight over your head. It uses a RocLoc system to give an adjustable perfect fit around the head. The Atmos has 26 vents which gives it great ventilation to keep your head cool on hot days, along with the coolmax paddings which can be taken out to be washed.It comes with a helmet pod so you can carry and transport your helmet safely. The Atmos is unbelievably light and extremely cool! It may be pricey but it is worth every penny! With this helmet on the market theres no excuses for not wearing one....

Advantages: Good looks with a good purpose Disadvantages: You do have to wear a big lump of plastic on your head.
...things that go inside to stop “head scratch!!” sweet just eats them alive and without them you’ll be in some proper pain if you continue to wear it properly (don’t what ever you do loosen the straps, it just hurts even more when you come off cos your head rattles inside the helmet!).
This is my helmet and if you read my reviews regular you can probably tell I’m working my way through my stuff head to toe slowly. I do have a Giro helmet but I’m not sure if I like it's fit – I got it for mountain biking but still end up wearing this old thing all the time.
Short and sweat review I think you’ll agree – reason: simply that if it’s a good helmet you shouldn’t have to say much, it keeps your head in good shape and is not ‘too’ uncomfortable as it does it....

I bought my 5 year old nephew one of these for christmas and he absolutely loved it, he still does, his little face when he opened the box was brilliant!
The price did seem a little steep at first, but it turned out to be worth every penny.
