Spherical Technology

Spherical Technology's Ball-and-Socket design, powered by Mips®, helps redirect impact forces away from the brain by allowing the outer liner to rotate around the inner liner during a crash.

MIPS

Mips (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is a leading slip-plane technology inside the helmet designed to help reduce rotational forces that can result from certain impacts.

Float Fit

A minimalist, lightweight fit system with an easy-to-turn rubber overmolded dial for adjustments (integrated with Mips®).

Fidlock Buckle

Fidlock® is an easy-to-use magnetic buckle. This time-saving feature slides closed laterally for an effortless, secure fit.

Progressive Layering

The process of engineering a helmet liner with variable EPS foam densities to better manage the transfer of energies after some impacts.

Overbrow Ventilation

Overbrow Ventilation features intake ports on the brow of the helmet to usher in cool air and push it through the air-channel matrix for full-head ventilation

Iconic+ Padding

Quick-drying interior padding helps manage sweat while fighting odor-causing bacteria.

No-Twist Tri-Glides

Quick-adjust fasteners that help keep straps flat and properly positioned

Sweat Guide

Sweat Guide pad design pulls moisture away from the brow pad and away from eyewear.

Eyewear Storage

Easily stash your glasses using the integrated helmet notches.
