It had a a good fit but I felt that it just didn’t cover enough of the back of my headI got the poc tectal instead for almost the same price because it was used and in good conditionI love the fact that it has mips, spare set of inner pads and the quality is great. It just runs a little bigger than other helmets I've had in the same size.This is the second time I’ve purchased this helmet (replaced the first after a heavy crash).Love the air flow, fit and shape of these helmets. the MIPS system works very well, and the micro adjust on the back of the helmet is the key to the proper fitI was soo excited but ended up some what dissapointed with the fit. I did order a Large but it fit tight on the sides. (somewhat a tad narrow?) And yes I did adjust the nob on the back but still tight on the sides of the helmet. I will keep it since there is no XL size.Fit well, easily adjustable, somehow makes sweat not drip directly in your faceThe Speedframe MIPS is a good helmet, looks good, is relatively comfortable despite the minimalistic padding, and has great ventilation. I've never had any problems even on day-long rides. It also comes in different shell sizes - as opposed to "universal" size, like the GIRO Fixture - which means it will look proportionate even on smaller heads. One less star for the following reasons:1. Expensive. You can buy an entry-level, full-face motocross helmet at this price.2. Internal labels are not waterproof, and eventually peel off3. FOX side decals are delicate, we have 3 Speedframes at home, all pretty recent, and 2 show decal damage in the very same spot (see photos).Seller was great! Very comfortable (got medium) and also has awesome ventilation. I love the attention to detail for the ears! I hate how other helmets come to the V, POC and Fox are the only ones that I know of that pay attention to that detail and go with a U shape! 4.5 stars on value for the product itself, as I still feel safety shouldn't cost this much, but their attention to detail kind of makes up for it.Hubby bikes and he loves this helmet. Uses it 3-4 times a week. Worth the money!
