obviously the easiest way to look cool is a full face but it's not always appropriate

Who says full-face lids look cool either?

Just buy a helmet that fits best for heavens sake and stop being such a moron about it.

ive got a big head and although my helmet is a fairly good looking one (specialized tactic, in black) i had to get a big one and the big ones look rediculous but if it saves me life, then it shall be worn

Cheers Guys, i'll take on board some of the lids.
I must apologise to ANDREW156 for interupting what looks like a bad day he must be having. Maybe just the wrong side of the bed today!

Whatever you do, don't get a 661 Dirt Lid. I got one thinking it'd look okay but I look like a bleedin lollypop.

Not really I just think you are a moron for putting aesthetics over function in relation to something that will save your life.

So are you and Andrew156 the same person then? hmm.
Regardless, what's wrong with wanting a helmet that looks decent as well? No harm in that.
