Bluff Park, Alabama - God's Country! 2011 PW VV | OK, so I have a big head(all brain  )!
I have a 2XL KBC FFR Modular that fits me well, but KBC has gone under.
The HJC and others in 2XL are not close and the 3XL are still tight on chin.
I want to stay with a modular.
What do you all that have an enormous brain like me wear for a helmet?
Thanks,
CHUCK |

Beer Collins, Colorado (there is no fort) | I got a big one....head that is, and for me the best fitting modular was a Schuberth Concept-not cheap but very comfortable. I don't wear a full face all the time but it's sure nice when it's cold/raining or when I ride my bike that doesn't have a windshield-Brian

Gettysburg, 2008 Tour Premium | The shape of your head does make a difference. Big 'round' heads like mine do not do well in Nolan of HJC helmets. Shoei fit very well. |

New Bohemia, Va | I never thought there would be a science in getting the right helmet. You have to look across brands to get the right fit, not just on size, but shape as well.
I've got a Victory half helmet that is my cool  helmet around town, but it trash for the long haul. I started my ride to California wearing that helmet and a last minute decision to bring my exo-100 saved me some bucks and a whole lot of discomfort. I wasn't even out of Virginia and I put up the Victory and put on the exo-100 it hurt so bad. I rode wearing the exo-100 with no discomfort. Each helmet is the same size, just different shapes.
Take your time and shop for the right helmet, I hope you find what you need. I wonder if you can get a peach basket with a D.O.T. sticker on it?
