Review - Giro Remedy Full Face Bike Helmet
May 21st, 2008 at 12:04pm Under Bike Gear
By Bobby Hanswell
The Giro Remedy Full Face Bike Helmet is hands down the best bang for your buck, when it comes to full-faced bike helmets. Whether you’re into Downhill Mountain Biking, Dual Slalom, Dirt Jumping, or BMX riding you’ll love all that this helmet has to offer. It’s a tough, comfortable, good looking, inexpensive helmet and that’s why we bought it, use it, and love it!
Design
This fiber glass shell helmet comes in nine fresh and sharp color schemes. The design offers 14 vents with internal air channeling to keep your head cool while bombing through those rock gardens. The Remedy features a 3 bolt visor, washable interior liner, and the popular EVA lined chin bar. The fiberglass Giro Remedy Helmet weighs 1050 grams, which is not bad for such an aggressive helmet. If you ride hard, you won’t care about the weight of this helmet, you’ll worry about protecting your head! If you’re a “gram counter” or just conscious about weight, Giro offers a Carbon S Remedy version. As always, this helmet complies with U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s safety standards for bicycle helmets.
Real Life Riding Test
We put the Giro Remedy to the test.
Our first test was at the local dirt jumps. We hit the dirt jumps and sure enough it involved a nice head “smack” to the handle bars when landing the first set. The Giro Remedy Helmet worked! Helmet score of “1″, injury “0″. This is exactly why we bought this helmet! Confidence in your protective equipment will help you go big when jumping!
