Arno, I ordered a POC Outer Skin top from them just before Christmas. Came next day. I think the parent company are the same guys who import Dynastar, Lange and Spyder kit into the country.

They used to import Dynastar & Lange, but gave that up about 3 years ago.

The 2007 Skull XP for £52 looks pretty boss to me! The only thing that worries me is that apparently my head is 59cm in circumference, this would make me XL on the included size chart and for a 5'7" guy that seems a little off...

True, still I've tried helmets on in shops before and I've never needed an extra large before. I'm gonna go with large and hope for the best... what's 10mm between friends.

malk, helmet sizing will probably not be the same across all makes. Hope they work out for you.

You know it makes sense.

Arno, They are clearly the same company as this lot (for bikes) http://www.xpedia.co.uk/Cycle/
If you look at the "cross-over" products such as body armour, they have exactly the same range, presented on a virtually identical webiste, at the same prices.

I have a 58.0 head and the Medium sized POC work out best for me (inthe Synapsis and Skull Comp models).

You and me both my bonce is 60.5 cm
I bought a Uvex XXL in VAl d'isere for £100 ( 63cm and its too big)  - Just bought a Giro G10 Mx and that ws perfect in Large as was the Smith variant brim - I think the moral is to try every one on in the shop, the sizes mean nothing - I wanted a Sweet but wasnt close in their l/xl which is supposed to be 59 -61 cm

Got my Skull light XP today and I'm pretty happy. I plumped for the large as I mentioned above and it fits fine (phew). Can't believe how light it is either!
On sizing, I did make a proper job of measuring by bonce, used a nice sewing tape measure and everything. Thinking about it, circumference isn't a perfect measure for your head, a long thin one might fit differently to a short fat one whilst still having the same measurement...
I've got images in my head of folk with really rather strange heads now, though probably no worse than I look wandering around the house in a ski helmet, with visor, and goggles.
