Have have a fairly large noggin, but the Giro Prolight didn't fit me properly. I found that MET fit great, & my newest Specialized Prospero II fits nice too. Going to put my spesh away since its getting cold. I'll have to try out a UVEX too.
That's a sharp looking lid!

That would look even better with yellow bartape and a yellow saddle!

Spesh Prevail (lightest of my bunch) and Prospero are a good fit, I have both. But they're more fugly than the typical fugly helmet, and for some reason the closure/tightening loosens up on occasion.
Have been on Rudy Project lately, and that fits my bulbous noggin well...but the closure dial leaves a little to be desired.
So I'll try this Uvex, which is "so far, so good" and perhaps a tad less fugly given less mass on the back end...and it has a non-flashy non-red alternative to pure black color scheme...

Agreed...would match my shoes perfectly. 
Weird sizing though, M-XL, I'd be confused as hell if the cm's weren't listed.

The R3's metal buckles are sturdier.

I'm liking the color, too. I wear a Kask that looks very similar (black + sky blue). One think I like about it -- maybe yours has it, too (I can't see the back) -- is its thumbwheel which allows you to adjust how snugly it fits.

Garmin Forerunner 110 w/ HRM. I know, this is a runner's watch, but it will record rides and HR just fine even if it has limited functionality on the bike itself. And I actually bought it so my wife can use it as well. I have my trusty Cateye Astrale 8 for immediate bike feedback. And I don't need maps.
If I like it, maybe I'll spring for a bike specific Garmin.

I think that this counts as "cycling related" in the 41.
