Oakley ARO

I’ve had this helmet a couple of years, after the last one I had saved my noggin in a crash. It’s very comfortable and the BOA style fitment is secure. Good quality all around and there’s only 1 pad to replace, with a spare included with the helmet when you need it. I have the white version and it stays pretty cool even on the hottest days, and seems fairly aero. I’ve put thousands of miles on these and will get another when the time comes, just hopefully not after another crash test.

Nice, comfortable helmet for a competitive price.

It's a nice lightweight bike helmet. I really like the adjustment feature of the rear knob, making everything nice and snug.

This was a tough product to send back. Everything about the helmet seemed 5 star. It came out of the box looking flawless. When I put it on, it was the most comfortable helmet I had ever worn. The 360 degree retention system it utilizes makes for an even tension all the way around my head. I fit right at the border between most small and medium helmets (that 55-56cm line), and the medium was a perfect fit. The ports for sunglasses were thoughtfully constructed, and the straps fell just right around my ears and felt silky smooth. But I never took the tags off or took it for a ride. Although this helmet seemed to tick off all of the boxes, I just could not get past how it looked on my head. If you like the looks, I would say go for it. It felt great and plenty light. It does flare out where it meets the temple, so it has more of what I would call the "mushroom" effect. Some feel it has more of an old school "hair net" look, and if you like that then I would say go for it. You can't really tell that from the photos, but it's apparent once you put it on. The ARO5 looks better in my opinion, but I was more interested in Summer cooling, and that's why I went after the ARO3. I can't imagine those large vents not providing a ton of circulation. And despite not being the lightest helmet on the market, it did not feel at all heavy to me. If they ever update the aesthetic a bit, I may very well find myself coming back to this helmet. If it kept the shape of the ARO5 with the vent sizes of the ARO3, it would be a slam dunk.

It came with numerous serious cracks to the front area that compromised the integrity. Returned it for a full refund no questions asked. I'll try again.

Very nice helmet

Amazing cooling effect. Just tilt your head and feel the breeze . Oversized slots do the trick. Removable head band a big plus. Extremely comfortable to wear. Excellent hot weather helmut. No need for a head wrap anymore.

Luego de ver varias opciones, me incline por este casco, y me funciona perfecto, muy cómodo, liviano y me agrada mucho la protección mips que ofrece. Y he tenido 4 cascos mas y me quedo con este. Se percibe de buena calidad. Recomendado
