I just bought some Dragon DX's from whiskeymilitia after reading a bunch of good reviews on the page. After I bought them, I noticed it said that they weren't helmet compatible. Does anyone know if this is true? If they don't fit, I'll be selling them in gear swap for what I paid.

edit: just found this that's telling me otherwise.

Mine fit really well with a giro G10, no problems at all.

I used DX's with my Smith Holt and they fit just dandy.

Swear by my Dragon DX's (four pairs and counting, don't ask...) and my Sweet Trooper half-cut. Perfection.

Ditto on G10 compatibility.

If you go on Dragon Alliance website it says they are helmet compatible. I use DX with Giro G10 MX and no problems. Actually, DX are superior goggles to use with helmets as they do not have any funny shape, therefore no gaper gap. Dragon is very underrated IMHO.

Sick goggles. I have always been an Oakley man. This year, I bought a pair of Crowbars and pair of DX on the cheap. The DX are better goggles from what I can tell so far, at least in terms of comfort. I have been in A Frames for years because they are so comfortable, the DX are just as if not more comfortable than the A Frames and they look better ( all personal preference). The Crowbars might have better lenses but just aren't that comfortable.

Oh, and the DX fit amazing with my helmet. The frame profile snuggles up all nice with the brim of my brain bucket.

DX fits fine over a Smith Variant Brim. I also bought a pair of DXS by mistake--those also fit, but the field of vision is kind of small.

I use both DX and DXS. DX just with helmet. I have quite small head so DXS fits me fine when not wearing helmet. True about peripheral vision with DXS. The only time it matters to me is when skiing on groomers, so I need to check on other people around me. But I love both DX and DXS series. Hard to beat what you get for that price.
