The Giro Indicator is an excellent all around helmet. It has 20 vents for good ventilation, weighs 10 oz (285 grams) so is not heavy, and comes in several attractive colors. It comes in one size and is adjustable enough to fit comfortably on almost all adults, and is a very comfortable price too!
The Indicator uses Giro’s Acu Dial system, which makes adjusting the helmet’s fit around your head an easy, one hand operation. The chin strap is held in place with cam-lock levers, which pop open for easy adjustment, then snap back closed and don’t slip. The visor provides shade and can be removed if you don’t want it.
All Giro helmets are CPSC certified, which means they pass the industry standard tests for safety. Giro uses “In-Mold” Microshell construction for almost all their helmets, a process that permanently bonds the EPS foam layer to the hard outer shell. This makes Giro helmets much stronger and more durable than other helmets where the outer shell and EPS are just taped together.
The Indicator is one of Giro’s “Universal Fit” helmets, which means it is adjustable to fit a big range of head sizes, but doesn’t fit absolutely everyone. If your head is bigger than 24” (61cm) around, look at helmets that come in multiple sizes (such as the Bell Ghisallo or Giro Havoc) which fit heads up to 24.75” (63cm) in diameter, or look at helmets made specifically for large heads—the Giro Atlas II fits up to 25” (64cm), and the Bell Triton fits up to 25.5” (65cm). If your head is under 21.25” (54cm), consider the Giro Skyla or Giro Flume helmets, which fit heads down to 19.75” (50cm) around.
The Bell Sports company owns the Giro brand, and Bell Sports makes both Giro and Bell helmets. Bell and Giro helmets share many features, but one thing they don’t share is shape. Giro helmets use a slightly oval mold (longer front to back, narrower side to side), while Bell helmets use a more round mold. If your head is large and more oval shaped, a Giro helmet might fit better. If your head is large and more round, a Bell helmet will probably fit better. If your head is of average size, you probably won’t notice a difference and will get a good fit from either brand. In that case pick a helmet based on the features or design or colors you like and don’t worry about the brand—both Giro and Bell are excellent helmets.
