lidpicker.com

Used lidpicker after two buy-return attempts to find a helmet online that fit well. I've always bought helmets in person (unless I was replacing a helmet with the exact same kind). I used it to buy a helmet that fits pretty much on the money. It has a load of helmets in its database, BUT wish it had a more current, complete set to make sure I could see all my options.

I learned that my enormous head was very long-oval when it comes to fit, and that I'd been wearing a size too large to make up for that. I have a couple of helmets on order which should fit my noggin much better. Hoping for a great result! I do hope they update their database with some of the newer helmet models, but I was certainly able to find the manufacturers that cater to my fit.

Twenty years ago a major (read hand built Japanese) rep at the Seattle motorcycle show (gone) told me I had a round head. Always wondered why helmets were tight across the brow. Your review fit many INTERMEDIATE OVAL helmets to my head with perfection. Thank you for this service.

The report was extensive and informative. Unfortunately for my apparently oddly-shaped head there were NO helmets that fell into an "ideal" range. So that was disappointing, but not the report's fault. The only Nit I can pick is that it did not state the shape I should be looking for or leaning towards. I am able to surmise some of that by comparing results with the free data they provide and other review sites' classifications, but It would be nice if that data were integrated in the custom report.

This is a great way to save the time of having to go to a helmet store to try on only what they have available. The report includes probably more helmets than you could find at any location. I found that the helmet I ordered fit just like the report said it would. It was a little snug, but the report indicated that. I have an long oval head, and there are not a lot of helmets that fit that shape, so finding some that would fit from the report saved having to order quite a few and then return them. I would certainly recommend the LidPicker report!
