Wooo great breakdown!

The boa built into the helmet is really nice touch

I want to order the logan, the only thing that makes me want to get the Merak is the adjustable vents, Ill have to decide sooner or later!

My measurement is smack between med and large, you would suggest to go large right ?

If your head circumference is right on 60cm, IMO I would be leaning toward the large, given the Size Large is (60-62cm)
@mjayvee 's fit experience and mine seem to coincide, only needing a few clicks on the Boa dial

YMMV somewhat with head shape, but maybe not radically(???)

I take it you are far away from a bricks and mortar store that stocks them?

I would get the Large if it was my decision.
But make sure you can try on the helmet or can return the size Large in case you need to get Medium.

Having BOA adjustment definitely helps when you are in between sizes.

So I tried on the smith quantum in the store and its like having a fishbowl on your head...not for me.

Unfortunately they did not have any wavecel helmets for me to try....Im stuck between ordering the Merak or the Logan....any other feedback from you guys?

Does the helmet look super bulky when wearing??

@mjayvee @MountainMystic @buller_scott

Does your ass look big in your bibs? (hint): Nobody cares

Also, the Merak looks nothing like this...

Maybe a bit bigger than some helmets, but more crumple zone material between me and the tree or rock can only be a good thing.

The only question worth asking is "Is this helmet probably going to give me the best chance of not ending up like michael shumacher?"

Get a black helmet & no-one will notice, and replace the frikken thing if it takes a hit

@woodhouse
I don’t think I have a large head. I tried on the Anon Medium and it wouldn’t even fit, but when I use the Large Me or Logan I need to crank on the BOA dial to get a snug fit.

If it helps at all, when I put on a Large Vantage MIPS, it is a little more of a plug and play with only a small amount of BOA Closure.

I’d try the Large.

I tried the vantage and the both Anon helmets, all comfortable, but at the end of the day the Anon helmets just sit too high and look massive. I prefer the lower profile vantage. Do love the fidlock and boa built into the helmet on the Anons

i like to get multi-impact helmets (as much as possible). broken Leedom and a Red (before they became Anon - shell split in two) EPS helmets - been there, done that. I now ride Anon Wavecel, after Giro's version of Brock foam, and a Bern wakeboarding Brock helmet.

a "low-profile" helmet looks almost exactly the same as a "bulky" helmet like the Wavecel. i.e. no one is going to notice or care that Red Gerard is wearing a helmet, let alone some random at a resort that most people in the world will never ever hear of.

just my 2c. aka 1/100th of the cost of a litre of petrol these days, thanks to Putin.

Magnetic chin strap on the Wavecels is sick, and it's nice to have a Boa dial built into the helmet, rather than digging into the bottom of my neck

Just picked up the Merak, size medium. Fit is great. Don't know about you guys, but I'm finding the goggle clip to be rather weak. My goggles slide out pretty easily. I would be wearing the goggle and just pull it down to my neck
