Giro Shiv 2 Helmet
Available Colors / Styles
With riders like Antti Autti, Andy Finch, and Gretchen Bleiler wearing the Giro Shiv Helmet, you know this skate-influenced brain bucket will protect your skull without making you look like an egg-headed tool. The interior sub-liner allows you to adjust the padding or remove it completely to make room for a beanie. Run your goggles on the inside for an even lower profile look.
- In-mold shell construction reduces weight and overall bulk by fusing the outer shell with the impact-absorbing foam liner
- Super Cool vents pull fresh air in and push heat out for better temperature regulation
- Weatherstrip shields work to seal-off vents in extreme cold
- Removable ear pads
- Compatible with TuneUps systems
Bottom Line: Keep a low profile and lay down some solid sessions.

I wrote a review on the Giro shiv, I'm not quite sure what is different about the Shiv2, but I figured the review may still be helpful to some so here it is.
I decided to try something new this year and I found a good deal on a Giro Shiv on SAC so I decided to pick it up. After an entire season I am a big fan of this helmet. I've never been a stickler about the vents really, I pulled out the "vent plugs" and they stayed out all year. I also pulled out all of the padding and earpads and wore a beanie underneath instead. Even though some say its bulky, I enjoyed the big fuzzy chinstrap. Really comfortable and no rubbing/irritation to speak of, although it does ice over pretty well on cold/blizzardy days, in which case I'm always wearing an artic yowie so its not a big deal. All in all, I haven't had any problems with this helmet and it has held up really well. I like the way it fits, and it doesn't stick up too high or give the dreaded bobblehead look (in my opinion). I've accompanied this review with a corny photo to show the fit of the helmet with smith I/O goggles.

I love this helmet because it fits "low" on my head, i.e., not sticking way up like a bubble-head. It's light, has perfect venting, and I just take out the liner and the earflaps and wear a hat underneath for perfect warmth and temperature regulation.
does this helmet come with speakers for an ipod or have an area
does this helmet come with speakers for an ipod or have an area where you can put speaker/headphones inside the helmets ear straps?
