Giro Skyla Sport Bike Helmet

The Giro Skyla Sport Bike Helmet for women is constructed with in-mold technology that fuses a tough outer microshell to the helmet's EPS foam liner. The fusion process reinforces areas around vents and ribs, making the helmet lighter, cooler and tougher. The Skyla utilizes Giro's Acu Dial system, which combines single-handed adjustment with a full-fit band for a quick, sure fit. This Giro helmet features a snap-fit visor, and 20 vents that allow cool, fresh air in and stale, warm air out.

The Skyla sport helmet comes in Giro's Universal Fit Women UW size (50-57cm), carefully sculpted and size-specific to simplify the fitting process. Giro's Skyla helmet is a lightweight 270 grams, and complies with U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's safety standards for bicycle helmets.

About Giro
Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry's toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too--in fact, pretty musch anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.



Customer Review: Snug but love the color and price

I was Leary to buy a helmet on line with one size fits all sizing. I found this to be a little on the snug side but not so much that I'd bother returning it. I do have "helmet head" for a good 30 min...

Customer Review: Snug but secure

I've got a small head, so finding a bike helmet that doesn't fit like a five gallon bucket is a bit of a challenge, but this fit fine for the most part.



My only complaints are that it's...
