Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Lixada Ultralight Mountain Bike Helmet: Adjustable MTB Cycling Safety Helmet for Men and Women with 13 Vents - Ideal for Outdoor Sports by David Caldwell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

For me, shape and comfort are important, but it depends on the shape of the head. Maybe a good deal for others.

only first impressions as I don't think I'll keep it to myself. As some others have pointed out, it has a more "round" shape and may not suit every person's head shape. I had too much room on the sides and also some pressure at the top of my head which wasn't as comfortable as other helmets I've had. On the plus side it looks good and is the only reasonably priced helmet I've seen that's specifically designed for mountain biking and not just a redesigned road helmet with a flimsy visor. It has better rear impact protection than others and a strong long visor that will provide more shade, protect your eyes and face from hitting branches and will not break. It's a little heavier than others I've used but doesn't cause any discomfort. The straps, buckles and sizing knob feel good, and they were less prone to head-butts in a frontal impact than other models without such a pronounced rear end. If it fits your head shape it looks like a good deal but I'll probably gift mine to a friend. Maybe not big enough for the biggest heads but mine is quite big and it was big enough for me. I don't know how it will work on small heads.

Pros
  • few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
