Join me on a seven and a half minute journey to answer the question "Which size of the IXS Full Face Trigger helmet should I choose if my head circumference is smack bang in the middle of the size chart?".

I Loooooooooove full face helmets... Saved my life at least twice (motorbikes)... 1st landing literally on my face from about 8 ft up... so hard it broke both sides of the helmets 'jaw'... came away with skinned knuckles and sore neck muscles. 2nd High sided and face planted so hard I have no memory of the actual accident (apart from a snapshot in my head of being about 6-8 ft in the air, face down... no vehicle in the picture... Was KO for about 10min then TKO (concussed) for another 15... Came away with 1/2 face bruise, dislocated shoulder and probably most of my marbles back...

Its s good helmet, but if you're in-between sizes, I'd go larger and probably just sew some supplied pads together to make up the slack..but if you dont want to do that, return helmet and try another brand. I ended up with the Dainese linea 01 as it was lighter then the ixs trigger, had more vents, and cheaper through the right vender. Ps most helmets usually only has 2 helent shells, the pads make up the in-between sizes

Good for fat tire e bikes (dual suspension) that go 40 mph on throttle alone? Thanks

When I was researching this helmet the internet generally said they would choose another helmet for full-on downhill or rowdy park riding, which is probably a similar risk to going 40mph on an ebike, so I would say 'no'!

Mine is exact 56cm, what do you suggest? Thanks!

@trailbogan 8 ай бұрын

I would go for the "Small/Medium" size as that is suggested for 54cm to 58cm heads!
