Long Oval Fit of Signet-Q
In the video review, Anthony states that the fit of the Signet=Q is 5mm longer than the Profile, but Arai's website makes this comparison with the RX-Q instead. Also I have heard from other sources that the Signet-Q has more of an intermediate oval fit despite that Arai calls it long oval. Is this true?
The Signet Q from my experience is indeed 5 mm longer than the RX-Q, however as stated in many reviews, this helmet is a step away from the extreme long oval of the profile and towards a more generic middle of the road fit. Don't get me wrong, this is definitely still a long oval shape, but it is not as extreme as the profiles long oval.
Likely if the profile fit you well this will work for you. I found that the profile fit my head better than the signet q and that I could feel some pressure on my forehead with the signet q, but not the profile.
Unless a new helmet comes out I will likely go with this as my next purchase (just bought a 2011 profile before they ran out!)
