I get enough ventilation (most of the time) to prevent sweat from going into my eyes.

Love it!!
Review by Dave
I am very pleased with this helmet. It is very light weight and the ventilation works very well. While a bit expensive, I am very pleased. The adjustment system is easy to use and I was able to get a perfect fit.

This is a good, lightweight, comfortable helmet. However, POC has just come out with it's POC Octal helmet which is lighter and provides better protection! POC Octal is now available at BTD at a great price too! Wish I had waited!

Review by Phil W
The Giro Aeon is excellent! It is lightweight, comfortable, easily adjustable, and has excellent ventilation. Purchasing it at a special price made it a real bargain!
Review by Bob Vasta
Nice helmet. Light weight. But the lightness is replaced with the size. It looked like I had a gigantic head. I ended up sending it back. But, it is a nice helmet. I would say true to size. But, I got a medium and it fit, but really should have had a large. I have a 7 18 head size.

Very nice helmet. Lightweight and comfortable. Padding and adjustment straps are very good. Very happy with the lookstyle as well.
Review by Dasetton
I had read great reviews of this helmet when it was first released, and although it sounded great, there is often so much hype around product launches that incremental benefits are likely negligible. It was also way above my budget, so I got an Ionos instead.
A couple years later and a great sale BTD...
This helmet is way lighter and way cooler than the Ionos. Even with a hat underneath, the Aeon provides more airflow. I'm a big fan, highly recommended.

I've been using Giro hemlets for years and this Aeon is great. It is super light and that excellent Giro look.
Review by SusanL
This helmet is half the weight of the one I've been using for years. Miss my little visor, though. Also, would like softer straps. Great buy on sale. Pretty too. I use it for all road riding, anywhere from 25 to 100 miles a day.

I love the Aeon helmet and Bike Tires Direct had a great deal on it, so overall a perfect combination!
Review by CapeTom
This helmet is just what I was looking for. Very light, very well-ventilated, very comfortable. I had it adjusted and fitting perfectly in a couple of minutes and that was it. So light and comfortable you forget it's on, even on longer rides. Yet the fit is very secure. And on hot days ( I wear a bandana underneath because I'm follicly challenged) it is as cool as is possible. I stalked the BTD site for a long time to get the right deal and at about [$] off it's a really good price for such a high quality helmet.

Very light, very airy and great fit!
Review by bikerboy
I use this product for cycling. I ride 4-5 days a week and roughly 160-170 miles per week. At first I was unsure about the size an the adjustable grip straps seemed very thin. But it fits as it should and stays in place well. Great ventilation, it is light and sits well on my noggin. I thought I got a good deal from biketiresdirect with the sale discount. Highly recommend.

I am happy with purchase and it is lightweight and comfortable. It is well ventilated but it is still hot on days over 80 degrees.
Very good adjustability and it is a good looking helmet.
Review by Tarkio
Very lightweight helmet that fits perfectly on my big head. The very fine size adjustments really help. The ventilation is awesome with the large openings in the helmet. I use a headband in the hot summer months and the combination of wicking by the headband and evaporation from the helmet work well together. And the ability to fine tune the size in tiny increments allows for a great fit with or without the headband. This helmet is worth the extra cost. The only downside is that the helmet is so light you'll find yourself reaching up to make sure you remembered to put it on.
Review by CycleCindy
Was wearing Giro Atmos and decided to try the Aeon. Have only worn a few times, but in very hot weather. The helmet is so well ventilated, I can feel the breeze circulating around my noggin. Love, love, love Found on 4th of July sale at great price and worth every penny

Review by ExChefinMA
When I decided to be in the market for a new helmet, I started investigating the design of newer road helmets. I was impressed by the detail that went into this and was further impressed by the fit and comfort right out of the box.
I tried on a number of different helmets in this class, but none of them fit as well or felt as well made.
