The Giro Bad Lieutenant Helmet is standard-issue gear for riders working on advanced maneuvers around the globe. A high-impact ABS shell is bonded with an impact-absorbing EPS liner for protection against incoming fire and hard landings. The removable earpads are backed with plush fleece padding. Because you're in combat mode, you'll have to do without ventilation. The Lieutenant is TuneUps compatible.
Bottom Line: Bust out the Giro Bad Lieutenant Helmet when its time for a full-mountain assault.
Got this helmet last season with the audio. I wacked my head several times and it worked great and its great to rip with the tunes pumping. I'm a skier and this helmet is great for anyone who rips.
Why doesn't this helmet have a D.O.T approval rating? This helmet looks exactly the same as the DOT approved helmet by the BELL company, but much more realistic looking in regards to government issue battle dress uniforms. Is there a difference in the material used in the construction of this helmet? I would buy this helmet and recommend it to as many people as possible if it had an approval for the road!
It isn't designed for the road, it is a ski and snowboard helmet. Designed to prevent head injuries when you hit snow going at a downhill ski speed, not road going highway speed. It is made of foam and an ABS shell.
Love this helmet. It works too. i took it off of a 15 footer and hit my head on a tree branch immediately after landing. Didnt get a concussion. Whats more, it looks f****n bad ass. only gripe is lack of ventilation but it works in the arctic id guess.
I finally broke down and bought a helmet and I've been happy with the Bad LT. Some ventilation would be nice but not a necessity. The only other downside I can see is that I ride harder and end up using it to bounce off of trees. . .which I guess is good!
Write your question here... I have been looking to purchase a helmet soon and all three choices do not currently come in large or xl. When will Giro Bad Lt. Helmet be available in larger size? Big Cranium Aversion?
The Bad Lieutenant fits really well, keeps your head warm, keeps you safe, and looks good on the mtn. You don't get that "my head is huge" look either. And with an audio option, it gets even better. What more do you want from a helmet? Oh, ventilation... That's a negative. Oh well, if your head sweats, take it off. Works fine for me! Good overall, get one.
Write your question here...Why doesn't the Matte Black Giro Bad Lieutenant Helmet come in larger sizes? You only show small and xs on the drop down menu. I have a friend that bought it in a larger size some time ago. Greg
Overall this helmet is great. It keeps your head very warm along with your ears and is comfortable to wear all day. Looks great, pair it with some goggles and you will be ripping in no time.
If my forehead measurement is 58.5 cm should I stick with a large or up a size to the xlarge? I'm refering to the Giro Bad Lieutenant in the camo. I'm guessing snug is better than loose, but i dunno anything. Thanks.
try it on in store. the helmet has barely any padding for variances in head size. I'd recomend a size bigger just for the option of a beanie underneath to pad the thing, but you'll get REAL warm fast. Cool looks, light weight, not great on pro if you crack yer melon regularly.
I had the older version of this helmet from like '04, and it didn't have the rear support band that the new one has, the new one fits more snug because of this. love the helmet, really love the price. I have a g10 mx from a few years ago too that has adjustable ventilation for hikes and such, but for resort bangin laps, this helmet is great
Got this helmet in leather.. Looks sick! Just got back from Vail and Summit County in Colorado. It was 45 degrees one day in Vail. My head got really hot and there are no vents, thats the only downside.. I won't be wearing this helmet in the spring. For winter.. Its BAD A$$!
if you wanna look badass.. and be ruthless and dangerous all at the same time. hit up the Bad Lieutenant helmet and make some head shots down through the pow
Me head still hurt from massive cliff jump (more than 3 feet!). Though me skis might never leaved slope, me head tomahawked snow with disastrous results. So much brain damage, me still dealing with results of not wearing helmet. In future me will always wear this cool helmet that remind me of army (who not accept me).
