Product Description:
The Giro Skyla Sport Bike HelmetĀ for women is constructed with in-mold technology that fuses a tough outer microshell to the helmet's EPS foam liner. The fusion process reinforces areas around vents and ribs, making the helmet lighter, cooler and tougher. The Skyla utilizes Giro's Acu Dial system, which combines single-handed adjustment with a full-fit band for a quick, sure fit. This Giro helmet features a snap-fit visor, and 20 vents that allow cool, fresh air in and stale, warm air out.

The Skyla sport helmet comes in Giro's Universal Fit Women UW size (50-57cm), carefully sculpted and size-specific to simplify the fitting process. Giro's Skyla helmet is a lightweight 270 grams, and complies with U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's safety standards for bicycle helmets.

  • Check your adjustments every time you wear your helmet

  • Wear a helmet designed for your activity


About Giro
Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry's toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too--in fact, pretty musch anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Snug but secure
I've got a small head, so finding a bike helmet that doesn't fit like a five gallon bucket is a bit of a challenge, but this fit fine for the most part.

My only complaints are that it's a real pia to get the straps adjusted right (although the back circumference type adjustment is a snap), it was really irritating the top of my head (solved by using all three of the extra pads on the crown of the helmet to keep it from rubbing my apparently non-aerodynamic head raw) and the cheek straps ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Cute, but too small
I bought the pink and white flower helmet and it is very cute. Unfortunately, it is too small...which is very disappointing because I really wanted it to work out.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Helmet
This helmet is light and comfortable. It's adjustable to just the right size without sloppiness or pressure points; once on my head, I forget it's there. It's also sleek and attractive.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic helmet!
Not only is this helmet beautiful to look at, it is very functional. Thanks to the easy to adjust straps and one-touch tightening system it fits perfectly. It is also light and maintains good airflow. Although the visor doesn't do much in the way of keeping the sun out of your eyes it does help a bit when you're riding in the rain. I LOVE this helmet!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Giro Skyla Sport Helmet -- Met all my requirements
I bought this helment for a silly reason. I recently purchased a brand new expensive bicycle. I decided I wanted helmet that matched the bicycle colors which are teal and dark grey (no red). This is the only helmet I could find anywhere that was teal! I figured I would buy the helmet because of the color and hope the rest worked out.

I was very excited about the price and that Amazon shipped it free.

When the helmet was delivered, I was really excited to see that it was the ... Read More
