tom@eastcoasttrials Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 im looking for a helmet I know this sounds stupid but most helmets make me head look massive haha been looking at this onehttp://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=10151&storeId=10001&productId=948634&categoryId=271408&langId=-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordMersey Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I have a rather large head myself and I do use that helmet. Granted my head still looks like a planet but it looks better then then most other helmets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

persistant_itch Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I've a POC receptor flow and I feel as if my head looks massive in it, but I do have a fairly large head anyway, I paid too much not to wear it though! So I wouldnt advise that helmet anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom@eastcoasttrials Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 ive looked at all the reviews on this one and its looking all good and the price isn't to bad either 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordMersey Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I find it highly comfortable. I also find that the added protection at the back of the head is very reassuring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Recons are amazing helmets! I owned one before upgrading to a POC Trabec after coming off my AM bike quite spectacularly in Wales! I have a 62.5cm head and it fitted me perfectly! The only other helmet near that price I would recommend is the Fox Flux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SumoSam Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Second the fox flux. Had my for couple of years. Road, trials and mtb. Fits perfect even with my large(61cm) and annoying shaped head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no1harts Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Which would you guys says better, recon or fox flux?? I was about to buy a flux before i saw the Recon through this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 That's kinda like asking "Which jam is better, strawberry or raspberry?" They're similar but with some differences. If you can try them both on, they'll both fit a little differently and look a little different on your head. Also take their overall aesthetic into account as it is important. They pretty much are the same helmet though so it may potentially boil down to price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
