Well I'm looking at buying a pair of Oakley goggles but I'm unsure what frame to buy. I don't have a large face so which frame would be the best?

Thanks

crowbars are nice but a frames fit better with a helmet

false, that is why they sell a separate helmet strap for a frames and not crowbars. crowbars are way more adjustable and customizeable. unless you have a very small facial structure, id say go for the crowbars

Exactly what i was going to say. The new 08 a frames have the pressure rigger and do fit decent now on a big head.

get some azn fit crowbars
crows tend to be wider and shorter which is ideal for helmets and with the outriggers it allows the goggle to go around your head so the strap doesn't pull the edges out

My crowbars fit seamlessly with my giro helmet, my old a-frames didn't fit at all, so definitely go crowbars. They fit medium
