I have a 25 inch head and bought this helmet as it was the cheapest I could find that size. Got it and wore it once and now I am trying to unload it on somebody else. Very uncomfortable helmet, hurts and lacks any real way to adjust it. Maker says can be adjusted using thick or thin pads inside but that is simply not true. If your head is bigger than 24 inches get something else. I went back and got the Bell Triton helmet (about $35) and it is perfect. I recommend the Bell Citi or the Bell Triton helmets, not this Razor helmet. The Bell helmets are a bit more expensive, but these helmets are usually a once in a lifetime expense and it is better to spend the extra money to get a good looking helmet that fits well, is comfortable, and is fully adjustable than this Razor model. Another drawback to this Razor helmet is no visor for sun/rain. Buy the Bell Citi or better yet the Bell Triton.

The Razor V-17 in an extremely sturdy sport helmet. In my mid-60s, I'm more than a tad concerned about taking a fall when I'm biking. Most of the bike helmets I tried on didn't adequately cover the back of the head. They were lighter, but, in my honest opinion, without value for a fall straight back. This helmet is a very close fit for me. If I had hair, it would be too small. The interior pads are removeable to give you more room, but if you remove them, the helmet is extremely uncomfortable. If your hat size exceeds 7 3/8 do not buy this helmet. Otherwise it's a very good buy.

Because the helmet is black, I bought four orange reflectors and attached them on all sides of the helmet.

My doctor has bugged me to wear a helmet while biking. I never did until recently but when I hit a curb and went over the handle bars, this helmet save me from breaking my nose and maybe more. Frankly, the logo could be smaller - have no idea "Razor" what but a 60 something probably doesn't fit their demographic. Good price. Some wind noise if you get up any speed or the wind is blowing. Generally a nice helmet.

This is a very cool looking and comfortable helmet. It is solid and feels much stronger than my previous bicycle helmet. The only potential drawback is that there is no size adjustment, so it may not fit as snugly as a conventional bike helmet that has an adjustable band in it.

I purchased the same brand for my daughter (youth in satin pink) which was wonderful. However on the adult version the quality was lacking (unsmooth plastic bumps, visible glue, etc.) and the size is waaaay too big. Not intended for female craniums!!! They should label this for MEN ONLY. I plan to only wear it for winter sports only with my layer of skull caps underneath.

-Why did I not just return it you asked? I had ice skating classes the same week, and did'nt have the time to buy another helmet.

Bought this for my 13 y.o. daughter and she likes the basic black color and style. It is not aerodynamic like other helemts are, so note that it is more of the skater helmet shape that is considered cool by teens.

I still have this helmet after 3 three years and it is still in good condition. I haven't fallen on my head or anything but I can tell it's sturdy and I have worn the helmet for more than bike riding. Looks good and feels great when I'm wearing it. That is all.

Teenager likes it. He's got a big head but not a huge head (yet). There is some light padding in it, but it's still pretty firm inside. Not bad though, especially for price.

This helmet is great for someone who does not like the look of a "traditional" bike helmet. It fits my head perfectly, but for someone with a smaller head--there is an insert to make it fit! The only thing that I did not like was the shipping... It was supposed to arrive by June 2 and did not come until after the 5th...

i'm sure this helmet gets the job done in terms of safety. i however was looking for a helmet for my road bike, this definitely didn't do it for me, returned it soon after receiving it, helmet is just huge, not appealing
