Not DOT certified but I decided light weight was more important at the speeds I am going. Probably overkill for me but all the talk of face planting on this forum has gotten me a bit paranoid. Been using it on my commute. Very light and comfortable and great visibility. The only negative is it’s more cumbersome than a regular bicycle helmet on the train.

I have a large Pass Pro and it fits me perfectly. My bike helmets are size medium. So if you can't find a medium Pass you should try out the the Pass Pro Carbon in large. I gave the motorcycle helmet a try (Klim). But it is heavy, FOV is narrow, and feels constricted. DH helmet is the way to go. Greentung, thanks for the review of the TSG Pass Pro Carbon, especially the size. I heard the carbon runs smaller, since I was at the upper limit of the medium (58cm) I went with the large. I just ordered the same color you got. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TSG Pass Pro Carbon is my favorite EUC helmet. It is the best compromise to a heavy bulky full face motorcycle helmet. I use the TSG daily for my commute. I measured my head size at 58-59cm. The large fits perfectly. The full visor is great for riding in the wind. It is very quiet and comfortable with the visor down in the wind and rain. I added a Insta360x camera to the top and some reflector dots. I will eventually replace the D-ring strap with some kind of magnetic latch. Right now, I ride without strapping in. The helmet is a snug fit already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMan Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I agree it a great helmet. Not strapping though, could greatly decrease its safety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad they don't make a wood grain color to match my wheels. You COULD get a thin piece of leather to wrap the helmet though 🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am wondering if you ever post your video on youtube? I just want to see how the 360 camera's view when it's on top of your helmet without extension arm. if so can you provide a link? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greentung Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 (edited) @newbie101. I do have a few videos of my ride with the 360 camera. But it is not posted on YouTube. I've taken a few screenshots from a ride with the 360 mounted on the helmet. The setup works great and doesn't look too weird since it is just a few inches above the helmet. Someone at a coffee shop did mention that at a distance it looked like I got knife handle plunged on top of my helmet. This is the normal level view when rotated to the back. This view is pointed directly down. I am carry returned box. This is front view. You can't even see the helmet.

Mortal Coil Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I have the TSG Pass. It’s great. Though... I find myself traveling home in the evenings during my westward commute with one hand raised to shade my eyes. I’m actually thinking of putting electrical tape on the inside of the visor so that I can give my hand a break. My other main use for my wheel is shopping. The trouble with a full face helmet is that I can’t ride home while snacking on that chocky bar I bought in the impulse aisle. I’m married to a dietitian, so that means lurking outside the door after I get home, finishing my sinful treat before making my appearance I’ve looked into flip up helmets but they seem to be only available in motorcycle helmets. I’m not sure it is worth riding around carrying an extra 500g on my head just so I can scoff a sneaky snack on the go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copusius Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Why are the sizes so small on the TSG and the Predator DH helmet? I am looking at the TSG and the Predator, but I find it infuriating that the sizes are so small. I usually use size 64 in helmets, but none of these helmets go over 59-61, why is that? Are these low-ball numbers or are they simply not made for people with grown-up heads? (Read BIG heads) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
