I am looking into a new helmet, as well as new crowbars. my RED audio helmet from a few years ago was great, but it always wrecked the foam of the outside of my goggles, aswell as my goggles not always staying in one spot/hugging my face like they should.

What helmet will fit crowbars so i dont have issues with them?

+K for help

C-bars fit great with most any helmet, as long as the strap is on the outside of the helmet..... the outriggers on the crowbar are specifically for better helmet fit, but stuffing the strap under a helmet defeats the whole advantage of outriggers...

Crowbars fit fine with a giro shiv. i got mine the right size (I don't wear a beanie underneath) and the goggles pop out a lot farther than the helmet. This forces me to put the front pad in, making it really tight. With the front pad in they work well together. I know your leaning towards the receptor bug but if you do get the shiv I would recommend getting a size up.
