I really like my TLD  A1 and I hear they really improved it with the A2.  Good looking lid, pls let me know what you think of it.

Well, it fits so plushy.  The vents are amazing.  I could not be happier with this helmet.

I really want the Fox FF, but it seems too big for my head, even the XS.

One of the complaints of the A1 is that it doesn't vent well but I never felt it was hot.  It is the most comfortable helmet I own.  I've even considered wearing it for softball!

I gave my A1 to the guy that bought my last Stumpy. He loves the bike and the helmet. It fit me poorly and didn't vent well.

Nice lid! But is says SRAM. bleh.  ;)    Is it a MIPS helmet? I was all about MIPS when I got my helmet, but now I'm not sure it's really necessary. What do you think?

I know, what is up with that.  Logos are taking over.  It's idiocracy.

I like the mips and the theory makes sense.  When you spend time crashing, you want any protection you can get.

Ya, that's about how I feel about the MIPS too. Thankfullly, the crashes I've had the past couple years (this knee thing and stalling and falling into a rocky hole last year) haven't involved the helmet/head. Hopefully the MIPS is good voodoo to ward off head crashes!
