Like how it's less mushroom-y..fits like the Aeon but 'less helmet'.

So it's still got that round shape that doesn't fit my oval head? I want one but haven't been able to get Giro helmets to fit. Bell, Specialized, and Lazer work.

Oh, and have you begun to break all Strava records with your new aero advantage?

I got it's stylistic predecessor- the Aspect. It's been really nice- surprisingly comfortable, lots of air.

Gotta say, I really like Giro's design direction lately. Shoes with no superfluous seams and panels, shoes that just focus on being light and comfortable, helmets with no superfluous wings and spikes, clothes with simple color schemes that don't make you feel like an idiot wearing them to the office...

Totally agree! I now wear giro shoes for both my MTB shoes & Road shoes. I just picked up a replacement for my Giro Pneumo helmet - a Giro Aspect that I got on chainlove the other day for $50, can't wait to try that out when it arrives on Santa's sleigh.

More than anything I lust after these shoes, which will be mine when they go on sale next fall:
