I recently purchased the Giro Aries Spherical MIPS Road Helmet and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with it. The adjustable Roc Loc 5 Air system provides a perfect fit that is comfortable and secure, without feeling too tight or uncomfortable. Additionally, the helmet's numerous vents and internal channels offer great ventilation, keeping my head cool and comfortable even during long rides in hot weather.
What really sold me on this helmet, though, is its top-rated safety features. As someone who values safety on the road, I was impressed with the Spherical technology and MIPS liner that provide extra protection against rotational forces, reducing the risk of head injury. This gives me peace of mind knowing that my head is well-protected while cycling.
While the Giro Aries Spherical MIPS Road Helmet is a bit pricier compared to other options on the market, I believe that the investment is well worth it for the level of comfort and safety it provides. Overall, I would highly recommend this helmet to anyone looking for a top-notch option that prioritizes both comfort and safety.

Rated tops in protection by an independent testing agency. BTD come through again with superior customer service when a larger size was required (parents always said I had a big head!). Comfortable fit with excellent coverage.

I am very happy with my purchase. I've owned many different Giro helmets and this one stands out and looks great! Feels like a few free watts for sure! True to size and great air flow. I will use mainly for road and occasional mtb.

I have a small head and this helmet fits perfectly. It is light and balanced and feels as if you aren't even wearing a helmet. Highly recommend

Expensive, but no well-made MIPS helmet fits my oval head better, so it's my third one.

Love the fit and comfort. Very lightweight and good ventilation. On the downside, the ventilation causes a lot more wind noise than any other helmet I've had. It's still great.

This helmet fits my head much better than any of my previous helmets. Comfy and lightweight. Great glasses garage that holds my Roka's and Oakley's well. Nothing digs into my skin, and I don't even notice it on my head when i'm riding.

So far so good. It seems aero and has an excellent safety rating. Only word of caution is it fits a bit tighter than other Giro helmets I've had in the past. Also, the Giro helmet cage is a extremely fragile so never pack it in a suitcase without protection.

The Giro Aries Spherical MIPS is extremely light and comfortable and well ventilated. It is the best bicycle helmet I have ever owned. Yes, it is at the higher price range but I would gladly pay the price again when it is due for replacement.

Love this helmet. Upgraded from a Giro Synthe that I really liked. This helmet looks much better. It's quieter than the Synthe and is cooler. Only complaint, because it sits lower it sometimes 'clicks' off my sunglasses when hitting a bump if the helmet is looser on my head. Not a big deal, might just be my glasses. Would I buy again? 100% yes.

Updated my helmet from the previous spherical MIPS helmet by Giro, the Aether. Not only is this helmet more compact, but the padding and shape add to the comfort and looks. Really glad I pulled the trigger on this one when I did.

The Giro Aries is the best ventilated, most comfortable and lightest helmet I have ever owned/worn. Summer weather in Florida is oppressively hot and humid and I try to ride 12-1/2 miles 5 or 6 days a week. The Aries has a sweat dam which is 100% effective at keeping sweat out of my eyes even though my jerseys are typically saturated and dripping by the end of my ride. I love this helmet!

The recent BTD sales have made this more attractive, so I bought a second one for my wife. Thankfully, I have not personally had to put this to the test, but professional testing suggests it is now the best option. The fit seems much more natural than my Bontrager Wavecel helmets.

Giro helmets are my go to as they are perfect fit. I have tried others like Lazer but always end up coming back to Giro. The Aries is compact with the highest level of protection, perfect road cycling and racing.
Review by Erik
Helmet is on the lighter side, lots of adjustments and fits great. Pads are comfortable along with straps. You know what to expect from a Giro helmet so no surprises here
Review by arlisquid
Well ventilated, light weight, top marks in the safety tests, straps/buckles work well.

Been wearing Giro helmets for over 25 years. Have bought a Bell and Specialized along the way for spares, but Giro's fit me the best. True to size the Aries Spherical is the most comfortable yet. Well worth the money for fit and safety and still lightweight.
