Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The giro syntax helmet is a discontinued color. I do like that the colored portion is reflective. Otherwise very satisfied with this helmet.

Giro syntax is size l fit my head like a glove. Only little negative is the chin snap, which requires some patient attention to clasp & unclasp.

Cons

The padding is very thin and sparse. Further this helmet is less aerodynamic.

Chin strap is way too short, needed to lengthen, to the point it dislodged from the clip. At it's furthest extent the strap could not be comfortably buckled.

Quality

The syntax seems to be a quality helmet.

Packaging/appearance

At first i was hesitant about ordering the white/silver color, but it looks great in person.

Competitiveness

I had a perfect fit in less than 10 minutes, compared to struggling for a solid 30-40 minutes with the cannondale helmet to no avail.

Fit and finish is as described and price is much less than similar models by other brands.

Sometimes it takes experience with an inferior product to help you understand how good a competing product is.
