I too am looking for a large helmet. head measures 25" to 25 1/4" and I haven't seen any that fit larger than 24 3/4" in the sites and catalogs.I've just gotten a bike after twenty or so years of not riding and, while I would never have dreamed of wearing one back then, the pavement looks rather hard and really far away from the perspective of my sixty year old body that would like to become a sixty one year old body. I know this sound picky, but I would prefer one that didn't have forty holes and long spikes (spike) out the back. I'm sure those are the most efficent,but I'd perfer something like a BMX helmet or the Bell Citi models. If I can't find something off the rack, I'd like to hear from anyone with experience in modifieng a slightly smaller helmet. I'm thinking of the kayaker's standby, minicell foam which can be carved, shaped, and sanded to almost any shape. Any suggestions or reccomendations would be greatly appreciated.
