Ok so, I got a pair of Wisdoms and am looking into buying a new helmet.

Ive narrowed my list down to the following:

- Giro Fuse
- RED Frequency
- RED Tantrum
- POC Synapsis (obviously noone will be able to tell anything about this since theyre not out yet)
- Giro 10mx

Which combo would leave the least space between goggle and helmet?

I have the G10mx with the Oakley wisdoms.  They fit really nice!  BUT, I have to get the crowbars cause the wisdoms are too small for my face.

Great, thanks for the advice so far.  I dont have a wide variety of choice in shops over here, so I was inclined to buy online.  I guess unless I go for the g10 I'll have to go out and try before I buy..
