Skylar,

Regarding your Fly Helmet, how is the sizing compared to other helmets, or how true to head size??

I am really liking the Fly Helmets but havent had the oppertuntiy to try one on yet.

And does anyone sell Fly Helmets at Haydays???

Thanks,

CW

All my helmets have been HJC, and I wear a large. My Fly is a large also, and fits just a little snug with my Klim Balaclava on. If you normally wear a large, you might want to get an extra large. Shoot Paul at Sled Solutions and ask him if he will have Fly helmets at HayDays or the Novi show. I know there were Fly Helmet dealers at the Milwaukee snow show last year also.

I have the new Klim F4 helmet, and Dragon Vendetta goggles. This combination works really well for me. The face opening in the F4 seems to be a little narrow and the Vendetta's fit well.

I have never installed the breath box, so can't comment on the issues John mentioned.

I live (now) in Victor, ID and do all my riding in Idaho and Wyoming. Rode with this helmet/goggle combination at least 30 days last season and was only cold one time...we were riding up to an area called Radio Towers in the Big Hole Mountains. It was -20 that day and the area is totally exposed and always very windy. Got some minor frost-bite on my cheeks...which were the only part of my face that had a tiny slit of exposure.

Other than that I am usually hot, rather than cold. I did break off one of the fins when I bumped a tree limb. But Klim sent a replacement that just snapped in...I think they charged me $2.50 for it.
