Product Description
The new Giro Section combines the look of a traditional skate-style helmet with the light weight of in-mold technology for urban commuting, dirt jumping, and trail-riding.Giro Section Bike/Multi-Sport Helmet, Light Blue Flowers, Small Review
I'm not a fan of the aerodynamic day-glo style of most bike helmets, so I was pleased to see this offering by Giro. (I also own their Giro E2 Bike Helmet.) I opted for the large size because, like another reviewer, my head is pretty big. I was pleased with the Section in this regard: The large size is roomy and comes with three sets (thin, medium, thick) of internal padding that attach via Velcro. Using combinations of these pads, the helmet can be customized for most head shapes. As the other reviewer notes, those with truly huge noggins may find that the thinnest pads provide limited cushioning in a fall. Removing the pads and substituting a thin wool cap is also an option for cool spring/fall riding.Compared to other pot style multi-sport helmets, this one is pretty light. Giro claims it's 296g, but that must be without any internal pads attached. With the thinnest pads inserted, it weighed in at 314g on my balance. That's still not bad. It doesn't feel very massive when it's strapped on.
My one complaint is cooling. The helmet sits almost flush against scalp and leaves little space for flow-through ventilation. There are a few vents, but they don't do much. As a result, I suspect I'll be wearing my well-ventilated E2 when the summer months start to really heat up.
If and when this thing does its job and stops my skull from cracking on the pavement, I'll report back on its performance.
