That’s great. The second one I’ve owned.

Comfortable fit, lightweight and much cooler in the hot weather.
The helmet is a perfect fit for an intermediate oval headed person. In my case, triple X and if crazy al really likes me, they would send me the German helmet in triple X style for free. But they don't have to do that L o l laughing out loud
Exactly as advertised. A badass lightweight low profile helmet.

I bought a second hand Crazy Al’s carbon fiber beanie off of Facebook Marketplace. Loved it. I had to get the Flat Black Switchback. I checked the CA website daily, but the one I wanted (XL) was out of stock. After a couple of months, it restocked and I was also notified by CA. I pushed the button and got a remarkable price with the sale and the STURGIS15 coupon. Meanwhile, I watched almost every CA review online until it arrived. The weekends delayed it a bit, but it came within a week. Well worth the wait. It fits snug as did the one I already had. As recommended on the website, I wore it enough to conform to my head from a slightly tight fit eventually to a snug secure fit. So snug I barely have any wind lift. I am very pleased with both helmets. Thank You for an awesome product.

Great comfortable fit, timely delivery!
Exactly what I expected from the reviews. The Price sold me with additional bonus coupon. And the shipping was quick. This will be my second helmet. Very, very light.

Fits good
Fits extremely tight, measured my skull @ 23 1/2, ordered large.
Ordered on Thursday arrived on Tuesday and I’m clean across the country. Hat is awesome. The being reversible is alittle questionable. Yes it can be reversed but the straps are all wonky when you do that. Can probably rethread and make them unwonky but then they’d be wonky the other way. The intent is to be immediately reversible so you can use the visor when needed. That said. I love the helmet. It’s a good one. And light.
Fast delivery and the best looking/fitting helmet I've ever owned! Crazy Al's rocks! I'll be buying more products for sure.

My old helmet was just as small as this helmet but much heavier and a lot harder to secure the strap. This helmet is great. I love the look and feel of it and especially like the light weight. I look forward to using it in the future.

Store owner replied: Hey Jesus, thank you for sharing your photo and for taking the time to share your experience! We’re really happy you’re loving the lightweight feel, look, and fit. We truly appreciate your support and hope you enjoy many great rides with it!
My first non-full face helmet and love it. My head measurement is at the top end of L and the helmet fit pretty snug out of the box. After a few week of wearing its loosened up some without becoming so loose that it wants to flip back at 70+ mph. Highly recommended.
My husband and I both have this helmet and love it. I recently bought this same one for a friend. This is his review & photo ... "BEST HELMET EVER!"

Store owner replied: Hey Jessica, We love hearing that your husband, you, and your friend are all enjoying the helmet! 🙌 Thanks for sharing his photo and for spreading the Crazy Al’s love. Ride safe!
I really like it but wish the dot was on the other end
Love it, and looks so much better than others!!
Bought it for the wife, she loves it!
Great helmet but the shipping is another story. Misleading to say the least . It has been over a week and they can only tell me they will send me an email when it ships in the next week or so . Atleast the helmet is worth the wait
Great helmet and perfect fit. I won’t ever buy another brand!!

Store owner replied: Hey Wendy, glad you’re loving the Switchback! 🙌 Thanks for the love, and ride safe!
Fits great and showed up fast.
Cool looking helmet. I followed the measurement guide, and the fit is a bit snug, but the padding will compress after a few rides. As advertised it is very light and small, no mushroom head. If you are looking for a light, close fitting half helmet, this will do the trick.

Store owner replied: Hey Mark, Thanks for the detailed review. Glad you’re loving the lightweight, close fit—and goodbye, mushroom head! Ride safe and enjoy it!
Fit perfect…super light and comfy!

I finally found a helmet that is low profile and fits!
Switchback DOT Reversible Helmet Flat & Gloss Black
Store owner replied: Hey Heather, That’s what we love to hear! Glad you finally found the perfect low-profile fit. Thanks for choosing Crazy Al’s!
Bought a medium. Measured 21.25 which is at the low end of the scale for a medium size. It fits pretty good. I like how light and comfortable it is. Looks great and matches my bike well. The strap is easy to use and doesn't matter whether helmet is on forward or backward it fits just fine and the strap works just fine both ways. Much cooler and lighter and more comfortable than my other half helmet. Would like to order the carbon version but it's always out of stock.
Switchback DOT Reversible Helmet Flat & Gloss Black
Store owner replied: Hey Scot, thanks so much for the detailed review and for sharing your photo! We’re glad the fit, comfort, lightweight feel, and easy strap are all working great for you—and that it looks good with your bike! We really appreciate you choosing Crazy Al’s. And we hear you on the Carbon version… we’re working on keeping those in stock!
Helmet is too small it fits way too tight to be a large.
Switchback DOT Reversible Helmet Flat & Gloss Black
Store owner replied: Hey Francis, we are sorry the helmet didn't fit. The measurement of our large is 59.05 - 60.00 cm or 23 1/4 - 23 5/8 inches. Do note, the helmet will feel tight at first, as it would mold to your head over time. However, if you’re feeling strong pressure or discomfort, we’d recommend sizing up. We do offer one free exchange per order, and we’ve sent you an email with the steps to get that started. Also, it would be recommended to measure your head and refer to our chart for an accurate size: How to Size. Thanks!
Have been looking for a helmet to fit my oval shaped head for some time. Loved the look of the Switchback so pulled the trigger and purchased it. Arrived the other day and it looks and fits perfect. Just threw my Shoei 3/4 in the trash.....no more forehead pain after a long ride. If you're like me, in search of helmet that actually fits the shape of your head, your search is over. Pull the trigger, you won't regret it.

Store owner replied: Hey Bradley, We love hearing this! So glad the Switchback gave you the fit and comfort you’ve been looking for—especially on those long rides. Thanks for choosing Crazy Al’s, and ride safe!
The switch back helmet doesn't switch. Tried every possible strap combination and still lays right over the center of my ears. knocks out hearing device. This happens with the polo visor in front only. With polo visor to the rear straps work better. Still waiting for the built on visor helmet stock to come in? Regards Barry
Switchback DOT Reversible Helmet Flat & Gloss Black
Store owner replied: Thanks for the honest feedback, Barry! We’re sorry the Switchback didn’t work out for your hearing device, but we appreciate you sharing what you found with the Polo. Totally get what you mean about the straps — they can feel a bit tricky at first. We’ve shared a quick video via email showing how to adjust them properly. You can grab the straps at the base and slide them to tighten. It might need a firm pull to get that snug fit. Also, try moving the triangle adjuster up or down to get a more comfortable and secure position. For the Switchback, there’s a similar triangular piece you can slide as well. Give that a try and let us know how it feels once you’re out on the road. Thank you and ride safe!
The sizing guide says that if your measurement falls between sizes to go with the smaller cause they're supposed to fit snug but when I did that it was to tight so I had to order another one.
Live this helmet fits perfectly and really light weight
Love the fit and finish. This one is a little cashier than the last one I got from you guys. I hate that you put the DOT emblem on the "front" of the helmet. Almost ruins the whole thing.
Switchback DOT Reversible Helmet Flat & Gloss Black
Store owner replied: Hey Shannon, thanks for the review! We're glad you're loving the fit and finish. Switchback has the DOT label is on the brim side, so you can wear it forward or flip it around and rock it backwards OG style—whichever you prefer. Please note that all helmets that are DOT-approved are required to have the DOT visible. And we can't encourage/condone or recommend the covering or removal of the DOT designation on the helmet. No worries though — we do offer one free exchange per order. We've sent you an email with the steps to get that started. Thanks!
Great fit and look!
