Giro Fixture MIPS Adult Mountain Cycling Helmet

I have another Giro MTB helmet and Im certain it saved my life. I had a bad crash, flat on my back (thankfully wearing a padded hydration pack) and ended up with two broken ribs and compression fractures in 3 vertebrae. Im pretty sure that the back of my head hit the ground, but I didnt feel a thing because of the helmet. I have a different bike now thats almost the color of this helmet and overall Im happy with the helmet. The size is 54-61cm and it fits ok but the chin strap is juuuust barely long enough, it would be nice if it was slightly longer so I could have it a little looser. I compared this helmet to my more expensive Giro Montaro and I dont know... I dont see why the Montaro is so much more expensive. The Fixture model is half the price, I think Ill stick with this model going forward.

The helmet is very comfortable, lightweight and breathes a lot better than my first helmet. I had a basic Walmart helmet and worked out okay ..but this one is well worth the money in my opinion. The only problem I had was that the clip kept sliding off on the chin strap. So I just put a rubber band over it to hold it in place and no other issues yet. Great product

This helmet is very comfortable! The strap that goes under your chin is adjustable for length but it is sewed to the straps that attach to the helmet so there is no adjustment there. I would like to shorten the strap that connects to the front of the helmet by approximately 1/4. It looks like it could be done but Im afraid to break something. If I could do that it would be a perfect fit. With that said, I am still very pleased with the helmet.

Looks great for mountain biking and MIPS is good for safety. Lighter weight than the Bell helmets I tried. The only reason I didnt give it a 5 is it sits a little lower on my forehead than Im used to so sometimes feels a little hot. Otherwise good fit and comfortable.

Thankfully, I haven’t yet had tested this helmet’s head protecting properties. But, on all the other things that I have tested, it came out with flying colors. Speaking of colors: My copy us exactly as illustrated. It’s lime safety green, definitely not yellow. It’s highly visible day or night which is very important to me. I have a 61cm head, just at the limit of the listed size range. It fits perfectly and has a little extra room in case I don’t get a hair cut. It’s very comfortable. I like the adjusting mechanism and the interior build quality. The helmet is very light weight and works fine with sunglasses. The ventilation is adequate even on hot days. It does have a visor, but I wish it were a little larger. Overall, this is a great value. Edit 10/04/2020 I still really like this helmet. But as the sun has gotten lower in the sky I’ve found that for me the visor is not large enough. I have sensitive eyes, and I’ve been riding into the sun at low angles more often. I’ve started wearing a visor under the helmet. It looks strange but it works. I still wish they sold a larger accessory visor.

The color is grey-white, close to white -- I wanted a white/light color for safety and I like it. I wear a large sized hat and this helmet fits me perfectly. I tried helmets at a local shop but their colors were all dark, so I knew ahead this would fit me. Very fast delivery appreciated ! Helmet looks good and has sturdy construction.

The universal sizing is optimistic for a large, and significantly smaller compare to my older Giro 55-63 cm large, and is really a small-medium.

This is a great helmet, but the pictures do not represent the color of the green model accurately. It’s much closer to yellow. It still looks very good.

Yes the color is a tad lighter than advertised but it’s very conservative and will match anything. Feels great too, doesn’t bob about at all.

Put it on to check for fitment, and ended up washing my car before hitting the trail. I didn’t realize i was still wearing it until I went to sit down in the driver seat. Very comfortable and lightweight. Protective qualities haven’t been tested yet.
