Product Review: SweatHawg Helmet Liner<\/h3>\n
Conclusion... It works. Buy it.<\/pre>\n
\"SweatHawg<\/a>
SweatHawg Helmet Liner<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
I first read about SweatHawg on BikeRumor<\/a>. Their review has a lot of in-depth information about the helmet liner. SweatHawg’s website also has a lot of great info but the one thing I couldn’t find was if it worked with full-face helmets.<\/p>\n
So I bought one. It arrived just in time for a hot and humid day when I was working as a guide at Launch My typical work attire includes Vans hi-tops, shin \/ knee guards, chest \/ spine protection,\u00a0forearm \/ elbow \/ shoulder guards, gloves, water bladder bag, and full face helmet. In other words, full body armor + 90\u00b0 heat = sweat.\u00a0
\n<\/sup><\/p>\n
The SweatHawg did take a little bit of tweaking to get it to sit in the helmet at first. Once it was in place I used the helmet straps to spread the helmet a bit and eased the lined helmet on. Another option is to bend over and bring your head to the helmet opposed to bringing the helmet to your head.<\/p>\n
The SweatHawg needed to be adjusted a little when the trails got techier. At first the SweatHawg might shift when the bike and rider are being jostled. I would just tuck it up into the helmet a little more without stopping. This was my first ride with a new Bell Sanction helmet with a GoPro camera so I needed to make occasional adjustments to get it dialed.<\/p>\n
Once I had the helmet adjusted and the SweatHawg liner where I wanted, it stayed in place. I did not have the salty eyeballs that I would normally get without the liner. I could tell the SweatHawg was really working\u00a0when, after a few runs, I took my helmet off and the sweat just started flowing down my face. Like I said, it was hot out and being covered in black plastic didn’t help.<\/p>\n
Here is a quick breakdown of what I liked and didn’t like about the SweatHawg Helmet Liner<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
Pros<\/strong><\/td>\nCons<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n
    \n
  • It works<\/span><\/li>\n
  • The price is right<\/li>\n
  • Easy to install<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n
\n
    \n
  • The liner may shift a bit at first, but it seems to stay put once it’s settled<\/li>\n
  • The Velcro version might work better with full face helmets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
