Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Stay Safe and Stylish on the Roads with Giro Savant Adult Road Cycling Helmet by Polo Bradley

Revainrating 3 out of 5

My third Giro helmet and I see the same weakness and spares.

This is the third Giro helmet I have purchased. I love the style, fit and ventilation. All three have the Roc Loc feature, which allows the fit to be adjusted with a ratchet strap inside the helmet. The problem is that the plastic strip that attaches the helmet is very thin. The first two helmets broke at some point (see photo). The helmet can also be worn with a broken strap, but the adjustment function will be lost. Granted, I've had years of service from each, but perhaps this is a ruse of Giro's planned obsolescence. Update: After writing this review, I found that it is possible to purchase third-party replacement Roc Loc mechanisms for about $10 plus shipping. . My old helmets use the Roc Loc 4 system and still have them, so I just bought replacement gears for both (from Revain). Reviews say they are made of more durable plastic than the originals. I don't know exactly what I'm going to do with the three helmets since I only have one head.

Pros
  • Decent Performance
Cons
  • Vulgarity
