Fitting a Helmet
Here are some guidelines to getting the best fit for a bike helmet.
- Eyes: The rim of the helmet should be up to 1 to 2 finger widths above the eyebrows
- Ears: The straps should form a V under just beneath the ear lobe
- Mouth: When the rider opens her mouth, the buckle should feel snug on the chin and the helmet should hug the head
About Giro
Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry's toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too--in fact, pretty musch anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.

Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful helmet. It can really adjust and grow to fit our daughters head. Not to mention how cute it is. We had a hard time finding something small enough for my daughter, 18 months, but this is a perfect fit.Customer Review: Very good
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
Love the cute pink bunnies, and over-all a very good helmet, my only complaint would be that it's a little hard to adjust the straps with an impatient toddler. But then everything is a little hard with an impatient toddler right? Otherwise she likes it and doesnt try to pull it off and I feel comfortable about her safety. I did alot of research on the few infant helmets available and I'd say this is the best one you can find. And did I mention the cute pink bunnies?Customer Review: Cute and okay with my toddler.

Cute helmet. The loc-tite system is nice. With the rounded back, the helmet works well in the trailer. Took my 14 month old some time to be okay with wearing the helmet. I'm having trouble getting the straps to fit right, but that's also because of trying to fit it on a squirming toddler. Customer Review: baby helmet

Helemt fit great. Son didn't seem to mind it on. Loved the duck theme and color...vibrant and adorable. Helmet felt sturdy, light and "safer" in comparison to other helmets. Happy customer :)
