My 13 year old broke his bike helmet a couple of weeks ago, and we've checked everywhere, and can't find one to fit ( he has a super huge head lol). Does anybody know of some place they sell larger bicycle helmets? We can't even find one like the one he broke, which was kinda like a skateboarding style helmet. He can't ride his bike until he gets one, because where we live you can get a major fine if your under 16 and riding a bike without one. I'm hoping not to spend a large amount of money, any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks guys!

    Got a Toys R' Us around?

    I'd say check the internet. You can usually find anything on the world wide web. That's how we order my brothers size 17 shoe.

    Check www.nashbar.com or www.rei.com or www.performencebike.com.

    Between theese 3 you'll find almost any helmet that is on the market.

    We got ours at a bicycle shop, my 13 year old son has a very large head also, and he needed an adult size.
