got my new helmet and its too small
squeezes my cheeks too much

 

Giving you chipmunk cheeks?

 

giving me headaches - returning for the next size up.

but that means another week riding around with this XXL helmet lol

 

Riding with a helmet that's too big is no fun!

 

it only turns into a rattle can over 65mph - so for my daily commute its not bad.

 

put on a beanie for the time being. it should help some.

 

It might not be bothering you on your commute to work, but it's not protecting you the way it should

 

You got a good point rock. When mine was too loose I bought thicker pads for it and now it fits great.

 

the xxl actually fits the top of my head fine. but its pretty darn loose on the sides. the only way it wouldn't protect me as well as it should would be if it came off or spun around on my face. it is still a cusion.

won't be long and i'll have the right size.

 

For me the with my lid the top was loose but the sides were loose. When I put on the beanie so I could use it while the new pads were in the mail it fit really snug. Still a lid should fit right. I guess I should have brought someone with me when I got my first lid.
