Spin to win while Kanye lays down fresh beats up in your domepiece with the low-pro, skate inspired Giro Encore 2 Audio Helmet. This Giro lid features a tough hardshell exterior, thirteen lucky vents, and integrated TuneUps audio kit, so you can blow up your audio orifices while you rally the park. Giro’s EPS foam liner insulates and wicks sweat away from your face and head, keeping your gogs clear.

Bottom Line: The Giro Encore 2 Audio Helmet—easier than riding with a ghetto blaster on your shoulder, but just as money.

The plug won't fit iphone, i had to trim off some plastic sourranding the metal pin of the plug so that it can plug all the way in.

It was a very easy thing to do, took me about a min...just press the blade of a box cutter on the plastic and turn the plug in a circular motion for a few times and the plastic will come off easily

Probably won't. I have a friend with an iPhone that bitches about the plug when he skis. He uses the iPhone headset.

You can just head over to the Giro website, which has the inside view as well as a 360 degree look.

the ear peices and inside foam that covers the vents can all be removed for warmer days regardless of whether you are in PA or VT - the ear pieces make a huge difference in cooling things off.

Bluetooth. Not the evidence of a nasty spill, but the techno-babble that let's you keep your phone to your dome without stuffing it in the helmet. This whip got it or not?

How good are the vents in this helmet? It kind of looks like it would be too warm for use in southeastern PA and similar climes.
