I'm a woman with a small head, so I ordered an XS. It fits pretty well, though it could be tighter in the jaw. The helmet has nice features and a wide range of vision. I like that you can detach the visor when riding on the highway in the wind. Overall--I'm satisfied.
Yes, I recommend this product.

how hot does it get in the helmet?

this may seem like a silly question, but my question is how hot does it get in the helmet? I am thinking about buying this helmet to use as a bicycle helmet. i have a motorycle and can use it a passenger helmet, but i figure i can use this for riding my bicycle as well. I figure riding my bike i probably wont get faster then 20 or so MPH so i was wondering about the heat in the helmet at a standstill or slow speeds. im not trying to put a sweatbox on my head. i figure nice bike helmets go for about $60+ so why not check out a helmet i can use for both motorycle and bike riding. thanks.
This is a light helmet, but it's still much heavier and bulkier than a bicycle helmet. You would be sweaty. The vents are good, but I doubt they are good enough to keep you cool at 20 mph while you are pedalling hard.
