I didn't lose my head!Jul 17, 2007
By Gold
I was in a bicycle race about a year ago when at approximately 20 mph I went over the handle bars. The first thing to hit the pavement was the Atlas (at left front). Even though I had a partial tear in my left shoulder, I suffered no head injury. The helmet was cracked and had a gash in it that was approximately 3 inches long. Without it, I might not be writing this review. After the crash I went on line to look for a new helmet. I thoroughly researched helmets. I wanted to see which have the best safety ratings. Turns out that Atlas II is rated very highly. One of the reasons that it is rated highly is that it has no protuberances that can catch on something at the time of a fall. This helmet got better marks than some helmets costing 3 or 4 times as much. The other advantage for me is that it fits my big round head.

Giro Atlas II bicycle helmetJul 16, 2006

The Atlas II is one of the few bicycle helmets designed for larger than average heads. It fills that need nicely. Otherwise it appears well constructed and similar to other Giro and competitive products for similar prices. If you have a large head, this one is a winner at a very reasonable cost.

Thoroughly enjoy this helmet! If you have a large head, this helmet will fit - comfortably! Top company. Others try to meet their specifications!

Saved!Jun 04, 2007
By K. Anderson
Through a combination of inattention, innate awkwardness and gravity, I took a fall off my Gary Fisher the other day and landed flat on my back on the pavement. I completely cracked the helmet's foam shell but suffered no injury. The helmet did exactly what it was supposed to do which was sacrifice itself to save me a skull fracture. I am a nurse anesthetist and have spent many long hours in the operating room anesthetizing people with the type of head injury I'm convinced this helmet spared me from. Aside from a headache of a day's duration, I had no injury. If you bike without a helmet, please get yourself an organ donation card. If you have a larger than average head, get yourself a Giro Atlas II

Big head, big helmetJan 02, 2008
By Frank Putnick
Excellent choice for us bucketheads. Very comfortable, not noticeably heavier than the helmets designed for the smallheads.
