I just got my Catlike Sakana helmet in the mail and what I feared is true. It's very round in shape but my dome is narrow so there's a lot of space on the sides of my head. Anyone got tips on making it fit like adding padding or anything? Otherwise I reckon I could sell it on eBay or something.

Return it? Go to a bike store and buy a helmet there that you can actually try on, or atleast find one that fits right then buy it else where.

Yeah, dude, I know I was taking a chance but since buying a Catlike in the US is out of the question I figured it was worth the risk. Not worth it to spend $40 to ship back to Germany.

Chalk it up to a lesson learned, throw it on CL and hope for the best.
