The Speedframe Pro Fade Helmet has earned Virginia Tech’s best rating (5 STARS) in its Bicycle Helmet Ratings program. Designed with input from our pro mountain bike athletes, this top-tier open-face mountain bike helmet offers a market-leading feature set.

Top of that list is MIPS™, which is designed to reduce rotational motion and redirect forces away from your brain should you crash. Dual-density Varizorb™ EPS bumps up that impact protection even further by spreading forces of impact across a wider area. The 360-degree fit system and Fidlock® SNAP helmet buckle ensure a perfect fit every time you ride, and the buckle is a cinch to operate, even with gloves on. The XT2® liner is antimicrobial and manages odor while wicking moisture away from the head, and once it gets a little stinky, is easily removed and washed.

Goggles pair well with the Speedframe Pro Fade Helmet too, thanks to the 3-position adjustable visor. If you’re looking for a performance-minded trail helmet, congratulations—you just found your new lid.
