Review on ๐Ÿšด Giro Montaro MIPS Helmet: Top Choice for Adult Dirt Cycling by Stephen Cernatescu

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good, but not great: Adult helmets

Worn this helmet for a week and already made a few trips. So far I'm satisfied with everything he gives as a helmet. He feels secure and the MIPs are working as they should. The helmet itself is very comfortable and I never notice it while riding. The style is good but nothing special. The only thing that confuses me is the Go Pro mount. It looks like cheaper plastic and the way it attaches is poorly designed. They offer a very thin felt on the sides of the mount that doesn't provide a snug fit when in use, resulting in wobbly wobble on footage. I fixed this by adding thicker velcro. The wobble has been eliminated, but then the plastic mount's clips wear out in just a few distances and it now pops out instantly with a little help. This makes it unusable. Not that much and it's still a safe helmet but I wouldn't buy it for that feature as it's really poorly executed here.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Unreliable
