Jackson brings up a good point about helmets--fit is really an individual
thing. Some will like one brand in preference to another. I used to use a Bell
M-2. I'm now using a Simpson Super Shark and find the fit much better, but that
will not necessarily apply to other people. And--glasses are also no problem
with the Shark. If there is any way to try different brands and models, I
highly recommend it before making a selection.
