"Great product"

Apart from a small scratch on the top of the helmet delivery method and timing was great!
The product looks great, but the fit is not quite as comfy as my Met. However it stays on firmly and was not a source of irritation on my first half ironman use of it - or the training sessions prior. Happily I have not tested it in a crash, but I felt it was a worthy upgrade for faster riding in TT's and Tri's. Compared to other expenses - not unreasonable to get the best protection!
First thing is that this helmet works for its most important feature: to protect your noggin. I crashed coming down a mild hill in July and Jim Kirk shoulder rolled onto the payment. I was going 28 mph and hit a road hazard so I impacted very hard. My shoulder hammered the pavement along with the side of my head and I sustained NO head injuries or any kind of temporary mental fog or spaciness. Unfortunately my collarbone broke really bad and now I have more titanium in my body than on my bike :-) The helmet was cracked in 5 places on the interior foam too, so clearly it did what it was designed to do.
Now onto the other features, less important but still worth considering. I bought this helmet because my previous Bell helmet was way too hot and I needed more airflow. It was a definite improvement, but my bell was about $40 and this cost $130. It was in no way $90 worth cooler. Still, my head is more valuable so I can't complain. Also, when I looked at the higher end cooler ones they obviously have to remove foam and hence protection so I think this is a good trade-offf between price, performance, and airflow. Otherwise it is very comfortable and light, lots of adjustments to tweak the fit, and the only issue I've had is the rear adjuster tabs for the head size seem to slide off. They are more or less aesthetic only and the helmet stays adjusted, but for the price I was a little disappointed - until it saved my life. So for the price and cheesy tabs I knock it down 1 star.
I found out that Giro will give 30% off on a replacement helmet, so that is pretty cool support too.
"Giro Atmos"

I received the Atmos in a timely manner and a great price. This is the best helmet for the money and Amazon had it for the best price. The helmet is super light and the ventilation is second to none. I am new to cycling but all of my avid cyclist friends use the Atmos and told me I would not be disappointed. They were right. I fitted several others and none fit as good as the Atmos.
"Most comfortable helmet I've owned..BRING BACK THE POD!"
In 20 years of road and mountain biking I've had 3 Giros, 2 Bell, and 1 Louis Garneau helmet. This is hands down my favorite. It's the lightest and breathes the best. Even on a recent ride in 94F / 65% humidity / Sun, my head didn't feel hot. (well, hotter than the rest of me, it was a pretty brutal ride to be honest)
It's super light and very comfortable. You barely feel it on your head.
The reasons I knock it down to 4 stars:
1) Pads are quite sparse and in particular they don't cover the forehead very well. There's also a gap in the center. For me this means that sweat runs into my eyes - very bad since as it evaporates it's not sweat but concentrated salt water. Ouch!
2) The rear plastic head straps are covered in a rubber coating, which cracked within a month or two - doesn't affect the function or comfort as there is a stronger plastic material underneath, but a disappointment given the price.
3) 3 small areas where the foam is melted or looks like it was attacked by a solvent - surface defects really. Again, doesn't affect function, etc but for this price I expect more.
My helmet was from 2008 when they still included a rigid carry pod. Apparently they don't make this anymore, which is a shame since it is a super nice feature - protect your helmet, carry your gloves, Gu and Powerbars too (It was well ventilated so things don't get stinky). - you can still get them on Ebay though...Specialized now makes one too but the Giro one looked nicer.

"Wrong colors on the website"

The helmet is great and thanks to GIRO. The colors on the advertisement on the website are wrong, I got the Pink/Silver helmet following the colors as indicated on the picture on the website, I thought it would have details in Pink/silver and most of it would be black as on the picture, but it is completely different, is all silver/White/Rose (not pink). Is a shame to have mistakes like these nowadays where you can find cameras avery cellphone.....and I pay for the mistake!!!
"bad experience "

Reading many reviews on that helmet and being a pro cyclist I placed that order. The helmet arrived late , I was already gone to Europe for a training camp for the all summer till sept, so a friend had to bring it to me. When I got it I was surprised to see it looked like a refurbished or used helmet with very bad manufacturing quality or an old stock , I am very disappointed but I'm still in Europe and cant return it. i dont know if the problem is the helmet maker or the vendor
