Have done similar w a long/wide billed, light weight fishing hat. Most recently from Cabela’s but several companies make them. Great for shedding rain.

And I ride w a friend in town who rides the neon orangeVentral Spin. I should get you two together! It sure is visible

I've searched the forum and found a little about helmets from several years ago. I'm a new v20 rider and my Giro helmet is annoying- I don't know what model it is, but basically my headrest (I have the adjustable one rather than the stock one) pushes it forward. Sometimes it hits my sunglasses. I've seen some recommend the Giro attack with a visor (I assume the Vanquish has replaced the Attack?) and some recommend a Smith helmet, or a Wild Side helmet from China. Mainly, I just want one that doesn't move around. You may say regarding my current helmet, "tighten it" or "adjust it"-- thanks, tried that.

I'm very intrigued! I get tired of wearing sunglasses on long rides but have sensitive eyes and can't go without them.
How is the fit? I read the reviews but always trust a Cruzbiker's opinion first. I have what's described as a "long oval" shaped head. My Lazer helmet fits pretty good but some helmets with a more round shape create bad pressure points on my forehead.
For $40, I'll probably just take the chance. If it doesn't work then my son can wear it and pretend he's flying an X-wing :D
I went with a Shinmax. It has the magnetic visor just like the expensive helmets , where this one was only $39.00 on Amazon. It only came with the dark visor I also ordered a clear one. C00B1414-63AE-4A63-BCFF-5A6CF0924CE0.jpeg
