I have a really funny shaped head, and need a new full face as I managed to run over my last one. I was wondering what the biggest full faces are out there (seriously, the biggest)
The last one I had was axiom, the vader I think.

i have a larger cranium and the M Mad Max II works just fine for me. Its essentialy a large.
Bell and Specialized also make some plus sized buckets.

I've got a big cranium as well, and I've found two helmets that fit well - a Specialized Hucker and a Pryme AL.
The Bell Bellistic don't fit so good, and the Mad Max II may be all right if it packs down enough, but it's kind of questionable.

No only do I have a giagantic cranium, but on top of it I'm also sporting a mane of dreadlocks. The Mad Max is a great fit. I'm actualy going out to buy one this weekend.

I've tried helmets that are considered large, but they fit tight. Then I tried a couple that aren't considered as large, but they fit well.
It's not just a head being big - shape matters too. So you have to try various large helmets to find one that fits the shape of your head.

Don't limit yourself to bike helmets: moto-x and machine sports helmets come in more sizes and shapes than bike helmets and they tend to cost less. I run a Korean snowmobile helmet that's certified ugly, but it works damn well (crash-tested by yours truly) and it cost 60 bucks US.

Exactly..moto helmets come big..but my head gets hot enough as is, I need vents. I read some where a new bigger size of the mad maxx was coming out this year?

I have a really large melon, too. I tried everything - the mad max didnt even make it over my forhead. I ended up having to by a Troy Lee XXL.
