I have a (size Large) CL-15 solid black helmet that I bought new a few months ago, and am having a problem.
The length from front to back is tighter than I'd thought when I tried it on; it otherwise fits good. After an hour of riding, my head starts to feel like it's being squeezed by a vise...the pain gets too great and I have to stop and remove the helmet for a few minutes before proceeding. I'm usually good for another 45 to 60 minutes, then need to do it again. Folks have commented that I have a bright red mark on my forehead, apparently from the padding being pressed too tightly against it.
I'm querying to see if I can somehow remove some of the padding either in the front or back without destroying the integrity of the lining, and, if so, how I go about doing so. I wouldn't need to remove much, just enough to lessen the pressure.
