Triple 8 Brainsaver EPS Unisex Rubber Helmet

I commute to work on cycle, in the summer ive been using a Giro Helmet, as its gotten colder and darker i wanted something with less vents because of cold air and with more protection. * I have a very large cranium, its got its own moon and seasons, i have struggled with sizes of helmets and hats for years, this large size fits very well. Its snug without being overly tight, i would have loved a little extra cushioning by means of interchangeable pad inserts, you do get some with it but they are like for like, which in fairness is also a decent feature. *The helmet is less than a hundred grammes heavier than my Giro lid which is very lightweight, at under 450g its light considering the amount of plastic casing it has. * I still wanted some vents to allow partial air travel into the lid, this does just that, theres no need to get sweaty in a full lid. I didnt think i could fit a helmet mounted light, or a camera if i decide to get one, however i have done using cable ties as pictured. One tip would be not to tighten them too much as they could cut into the foam, however they are not noticeable on the head when wearing. * After a month of wearing it has not become less comfortable, the pads are intact and cushioning remains the same as the day i put it on, it feels robust, its obviously got a lot of fans in extreme sports so the fact its also so versatile as an everyday commuter lid is great. * With having minimal vents i find it useful for storing gloves, keys etc, something i couldnt do before with a fully vented lid. * The chin strap is totally adjustable and fairly easy to do, fits right under the chin and doesnt sit on it, a cushioned pad might be useful if you want it really tight but you can easily make one yourself out of the extra pads supplied if necessary. * It appears solid, im not shy in chucking it around and so far no scratches or dents etc, that said the ultimate sturdiness test is a crash and not something you really want to test! I feel confident however it would perform well and so for me this is the most important factor. * Overall its a fantastic looking helmet, the large size is nice and snug and its lightweight but with obvious protection advantages over a more traditional cycle helmet. Buy one if your looking for a well made premium helmet thats both great looking and sturdy!

Love Triple8 stuff and I’m fully kitted out with the brand. I’m between sizes for helmets, the last one I tried (different brand) in a large was far too big , moved around and looked as bad as it felt. I took a risk with this 888 and went for the S/M in the hope it would fit my odd shaped old noggin. It was a little tight with the supplied pads but a scavenge for a slightly thinner one and all was well. After a half dozen uses it now fits perfectly. The only helmet I don’t feel a complete bellend wearing and so comfy I forget I’m wearing it after a while. Looks pretty stylish (for a piss pot) in the matt finish and slight upturn at the rear. Relatively low profile compared to some. Fortunately not tested for its crash effectiveness yet. I would definitely buy another.

Great quality helmet. I bought this for my partner who wants to get back into rollerblading after 30 years! She lives the colour, bright and funky. It was easy to adjust to her head size. The padding is in the correct place and is comfortable. Good value for money. She has added lights to the helmet. Adult size i think as its xl.

Good quality

Perfect comfortable fit!

Excellent purchase. Very well made and much more stylish than most of the cycle helmets available. I have a large head so ordered the L/XL size and it is a perfect fit. The helmet is fitted with sweatsaver fit pads and also includes a slightly thicker set to ensure the correct fit. Lightweight and very comfortable to wear this helmet offers excellent protection. Great price too. Highly recommended.

I've added some photos as I think it will help you decide. I wanted a bright colour for visibilty which covers a larger portion of my skull, it's lightweight, fits my head well using the sizing guide in description, and the outer shell feels sturdy. Easy to put on and remove and has ventilation holes for airflow. I would recommend. Sunglasses fit well with helmet on.

I’m a 46yr old skater so protection is a priority no matter what I’m rolling around on. Be it ramps or flat. I got the xl and it’s a nice fit without being tight. One of the better helmets I’ve ever bought. Very impressed. I like the understated styling.

Ich habe den Helm gekauft in Größe bis 58. Geliefert wurde ein Helm der nicht annähernd passt - Viel zu klein . Kann passieren. Meine Helme habe bisher alle bis 58 cm gepasst. Jetzt soll ich fast 14 EUR für den Rückversand bezahlen obwohl die Größe überhaupt nicht mit den Angaben passt. Ich bekomme eine Currywurst anstatt einer Frikadelle und soll für die Rücksendung über 30% des Preises bezahlen. Sehr Kundenunfreundlich !!!!

Over the last few weeks, IlI have returned three helmets and I can say I have finally found the winner. I’ve been looking for a BMX-ish type helmet for cruising around the hood on my bike. Two of the helmets were advertised incorrectly as applying to biking or are questionable on safety—advertised with [certification] but with no markings or stickers lending credit to the claim. They also came only in a tied-off bag...sketchy. The third one had such a large dome that it made my head look huge....probably a safe helmet, but not the youthful look I was after. Opened the amazon box and was extremely happy to find the helmet in packaging worthy of a new helmet from a store. The box had the advertised certifications right on the front of the box. Additionally, the inside of the helmet had certification stickers and mfg date/lot stickers. All the info in the helmet and on the box made me feel like I was getting a legit safe product. I got the glass black helmet and it’s about as glossy as a highly polished car. I’m talking 95% mirror gloss. I like the green color of the brand stickers and the chin strap. Only one strap is green, the other is black. It also comes with a large orange sticker to slap on something and additional pads. The space/cut-outs above the ears is ample. The thickness of the inner impact foam and the shell along with the overall shape is just right. I feel like I’d be protected but also don’t look like a commuter. The fit is nice. With the pads, it sits on your skull cap evenly and is cushioned just right. Nowhere does it compress or rub on a given spot. There isn’t a back adjustment cage/dial to tighten it down, but it actually sits/fits so well when the straps are properly adjusted. Because of this, I wasn’t overly concerned it wasn’t going to stay on should I go airborne and skid on my melon. The air port holes aren’t very big but still allow enough airflow to move through that you won’t get too too sweaty. This helmet was a winner. I liked it so much I was adding my own stickers to it after only 5 minutes. I’d highly recommend this helmet and we’ll probably get another one for the family.

der Helm sieht meines Erachtens nach viel schöner aus, als Fahrradhelme. Daher trage ich ihn gern. In meinem Ort, bin ich mit dem grünen Helm schon bekannt. Er passt, ist bequem und wackelt nicht, wen richtig eingestellt. Im Winter kann man sie Verkleinerungen rausnehmen und so bequem eine Mütze tragen.

It is very small. Helmet M indicated that its suitable for 56cm but its not rue. All the other brand fits in this size range but this. It would not have been a big issue if it would have been possible to return the item but its not the case. Too expensive for not being able to wear.

Sizing was not accurate, too small
