The Skid Lid Original is the smallest DOT helmet I've ever experienced, it is a definite move in the right direction against mushroom head, still a little but very little. The reason for the 3 stars is that they really have skimped on some things, like a removable liner. If you've ever worn a motorcycle helmet in SE Texas during the middle 7 months of the year you come to appreciate a removable, washable liner! But there's hardly any padding in the helmet so it should be ok just rinsing out and drying, hopefully. Another thing is there's no snap in the strap end! So either tuck the strap end under your chin or glue some velcro to it to keep it from flapping around at speed. Also the straps are lop-sided, the one on the left side the triangle is longer than my ear, on the right side the triangle only goes down halfway down my ear! It looks ridiculous but I guess it doesn't adversely affect anything. All in all this is a pretty good helmet for the price (Amazon price!), relatively comfortable (I have a big, XXL, and oval head) and hopefully the foam forms to my head better because it's a bit tight in front. It works really well on the bike, but there is definitely room for improvement. I wouldn't pay full price for it but at Amazon prices (or others online if you search) it's a good deal. ### ⭐⭐⭐ What happened, Skid Lid? *by A***. on Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2019* I had a Skid Lid a few years back that mysteriously disappeared from my bike. It fit fine with minimal "mushroom" head. My wife has a Street Steel that fits just as good: Comfortable, stays in place and has a low profile on her head. I bought this one thinking it would fit just as well. WRONG! It's obvious they added more padding to the crown which raises the helmet off your head. It also seems like they changed the strap geometry because when you tighten the chin strap, it shifts the whole helmet over. On most helmets, the D-ring is about level with the lowest part of the triangle on the other side. This one's about 2 inches off. Not at all a good fit.Had I kept the box it came in (I'm still kicking myself), this would be going back and I would be on my way to a local shop to find one I liked. Unfortunately I'm stuck with it. At least until it disappears too. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lowest dot i found *by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2017* I was disappointed in how high it sits because of the dot padding, but its alot better then others ive owned. I uselly go ful face so i look like a space man, with this its a lil mushroom. Anyone looking for NO mushroom effect will need to avoid DOT rated, and if your not wearing DOT WHY BOTHER. Sure you save your skull, but the impact with no padding can still cause brain damage. Ride safe, be safe, protect yourself.
