Lost is my destination.
Got a Neotec 2 and SRL delivered yesterday. Ordered it in medium as I have 4 other Shoei's. As soon as I tried it on it was immediately evident that it was a bad fit, and not by a little. The original Neotec, as many new helmets are, was a little padding-tight and formed perfectly over time. The N2 was a much different story with the area that we measure for fitment feeling like a tight ring around my head. So much so that I could feel my head pulse and it became pretty uncomfortable with a minute. Strange. Literally every other medium Shoei I've ever slipped on fit very well. Had to check the box as it seemed to me that the incorrect size may have been shipped. Nope, medium.
Unfortunately this one of those times where thinner pads aren't an option as the tightness is above them. Would rather not move up to a larger shell size so Shoei may not do the job this time around.
Anybody else experience any atypical fitting issues with this model?
