Overall, they fit very similarly, with the Method feeling a little more secure and pulled in around the back of my head/occipital area. They also switched up the vents and added Koroyd to the back. Overall the same aesthetic and weight, with better tech and fit. Still the lightest/lowest profile/best looking helmet IMO.

I picked one up last season, love the helmet but holy hell the airflow on my thinning hairline up here in the north.

Man, Geoff (my dog/profile pic) isn’t doing great just now. His hind leg is giving him grief and it makes me sad. I’m not sure how long he’s going to be around.

Sorry to hear that, man. One of the worst feelings.
