Bottom Line:
I was having alot of trouble with my Giro helmet that was not that old, Giro just didnt fit well. So I went and found this helemt and man does it fit perfect. I tried on teh s-works helment from specialzed and that has nothing on the feel of this helment. You feel like there is a big ring around your head on the specialized one. This one snugs the back hlaf of your head and a little strap up front also.
I bought the Genesis RD Edition with the roller on top.
I cant say enough good things about this helmet. I cant wait for my long road ride tomorrow to get a better feel. The Giro I had to constantly move it around and it felt like a rock on my head.
The genesis is a low profile helmet also. Keeping the mushroom head to a minimum.
