Excellent fit & venting. Chin straps stay where they should unlike the cheaper helmets that get all twisted and tangled.
Cons:
There aren''t any cons to buying a top of the line product.

I went to my LBS and tried on helmets without looking at the price tag. The Giro Xen was by far the best.
You get what you pay for. A top quality product with an excellent fit and uncomprimised protection will cost a few bucks more than your big box store variety helmets. The Giro Xen delivers.

Pros:
Fit, Protection, Venting, Good looking (for a Helmet)
Cons:
Cost (but My head is worth it)

I liked it because it is One Color, it doesnt have the Crazy colors and Graphics most helmets do.
The fit and Feel are incredible, i tried a lot of helmets over the years and this is a Must Try.
Cost is NOt really that high, but you can get head pro for $19, so it seams high.

This is a great helmet for all those trail riders looking for maximum protection in a cross country style helmet. The Xen is beefier than the typical xc helmet and covers more of your head.
