Rudy Projects Helmet sizing
Does their large run "large"?
I wear a large but some brands that I have tried on seem small in their Large size. Bell and Specialized; their large is fine. LAS and GIRO, their Large seems small or tight on my forehead.
Thanks for any help. Just trying to narrow a new helmet purchase down. No Rudy Dealers local and don't want to have to go back and forth with online ordering/returning.

They don't run large compared to other brands I've used, notably Giro and Specialized, but really shape is more important than "size". In other words it could be "large"in one dimension but tight in another. One thing I will say though is that the Kontact that I have has a really nice adjustable retention system so you should be able to dial it in pretty well.

I had an Atmos that fit well. The Ionos didn't fit well.
In Rudy Project, I've had an Actyum, Kontact, and Kontact+ (pictured in Avatar)
