I was excited to get this helmet on sale, because it sounded like what I was looking for. When it came, it was in a fancy luggage-type bag with pockets -- very impressive. Took it out and I loved the pearl white color accented by chrome-like features, as well as the leather ear flaps with slots so you can hear (unlike the other Giros). However, then I put it on my head and it didn't fit like the other Giros (same size I always get). There was something pressing into my skull above both my left and right temples. I loosened it up to the biggest size and it still hurt. I took it off and looked inside and there were curved hard plastic bars on each side of the helmet! These press into your head and cause pain, so I returned it. I have the black Giro Sheer, which fits perfect and has great features, so I will order another one of those in white, if I can find one on sale. Also, the Edition also does not come with one-touch adjustable vents, which I thought it did. The Giro Sheer comes with this and is MUCH more comfortable.
