I had the previous model of this helmet and loved it. I had it for around 3 years and decided to update it. Since I love POC and thought that I was only replacing mine with the new one I simply chose the same size thinking it would fit the same way. I’m sad to say that it wasn’t and even though it has the system to tighten it, it was so big that the strap that tightens the interior was over my ears and really there wasn’t anything I could do to make it fit with out getting a head ache.Like I said I love POC and have been wearing a lot of their gear, specially for mountain biking (full face helmet, knee, shin, elbow guards) so I believe I know my sizes on their products. This is the first time I had a problem and since I couldn’t do anything to solve it, I had to return it. Got an Amazon gift card for the value of the helmet.

Helmet is excellent! Audio quality is great and you can still hear things around you.

I don’t know why these morons think that this has good sound quality. It’s absolutely terrible, trust me. The bass sounds like it’s blowing out at half volume. My dad and I purchased it to communicate on the slopes without having to take off out gloves. This would be possible except the buttons are so small that I have not successfully answered any call during this entire ski trip (though it works fine if you don’t have gloves on, it’s just a design flaw that makes the perk of having this helmet useless). Good helmet for safety but why am I paying extra for the built in speakers if they barely fulfill their purpose. This is a serious let down from POC.
