Fits well. Recommended to others.
BVRT ticked off the Bucket list.
3 riders with DaBrims and one without......Guess who got the most attention from the magpies along the way....not me or the other 2 DaBrim wearers my friends - I heard them come down but they just couldn't get close enough to scare me. The other guy got hammered. Apart from the Maggies;
Da Brims were fantastic. They did not come off or cause any issues at higher speed and kept the sun and magpies at bay. No Sunburn is always a good thing.
Worth every cent.
I love cycling, but I am terrified of magpies. So much so during the months Sept - Dec I won't go anywhere near my bike, because of my fear of being attacked. Yesterday, I went out on my bike wearing a da brim, and even though I was swooped a couple of times, came away unscathed and relieved I was wearing a Da Brim.
I bought the da Brim not so much for sun shade (although it covers that issue very well) but as a major component in my anti-magpie-attack defense system. Combined with the bird repellent spikes on top of my helmet it works a treat. I admit to having doubts that the brim would handle winds and speed but that's all in the past now. I've tested it going downhill into direct wind at 40+ kph and it stayed in place with no flapping and no drag that I could notice. I might not look like a typical cyclist but while they are looking around nervously for oncoming black and white missiles I cruise on without a care in the world. The birds can't get me from above or below. What a relief. I'm just kicking myself that I waited so long.
Da Brim was very easy to fit (Bontrager Solstice helmet). I have used it in various conditions and at speeds of up to 40km/h with no problems at all. A strong cross wind can be felt, but is not a problem. At high speeds Da Brim does not cause any issues at all. Best of all, no magpies have hit me or the helmet since I have put it on - this includes some known magpies that have taken pieces out of my ears previously.

Keeping You Safe from UV
Every day, four Australians lose their lives to melanoma, a stark reminder of the ever-growing threat this aggressive form of skin cancer poses. Unfortunately, these alarming statistics are on the rise, driven by increasing temperatures and soaring UV indexes that intensify our exposure to harmful sun rays. As the climate continues to change and the sun’s intensity becomes even more unforgiving, it’s crucial that we take proactive steps to protect ourselves. Staying out of the sun is no longer just a recommendation; it’s a necessary measure for preserving our health and well-being. From wearing protective clothing and broad-brimmed hats to seeking shade and applying high-SPF sunscreen, we must make sun safety a priority in our daily lives to combat this silent but deadly threat.

August to October: Magpie Season is Here
Magpies swoop cyclists primarily as a defensive behavior during their breeding season, which typically occurs between late August and early October in Australia. During this time, magpies become highly protective of their nests and young, perceiving any potential threat as a danger to their offspring. Cyclists, who move quickly and often unpredictably through a magpie’s territory, are seen as such threats.
