Full-face helmets offer the best level of protection for mountain biking, but are often cumbersome and lack the ventilation needed for anything other than downhill. Enter the Stage Mips Helmet from Tr more→oy Lee Designs. An impressively low weight combined with extensive ventilation make the Stage Mips our choice for enduro-style riding or racing, where technical descents worthy of a full-face helmet are mixed in with climbs and long transfer stages. It's still downhill certified, ensuring it can hold up to high-energy impacts if you're riding DH or bike park, but the lightweight and highly-ventilated design make it much more enjoyable for the rides when you have to earn your descent first.

Our kids ski and they want a comfortable helmet just like us, so we outfit them with the Smith Glide MIPS Helmet. This helmet has a nice fuzzy interior so our kiddos stay warm while staying safer with more→the added MIPS shell.

The Specialized Tactic 4 MIPS Helmet is built with the perfect combination of comfort, ventilation, and protection for days full of technical singletrack and enduro riding. Thanks to the Integrated Fi more→t System, we can dial in a personalized fit no matter what head shape we have, and the Computational Fluid Dynamic design ensures we get maximum airflow moving through the massive vents so that that heat is drawn away from our head at every speed. And although we hope that no ride ends in a crash, the MIPS Evolve system is integrated into the helmet to lower the amount of energy transferred to our brain in the event of an accident.

With IXS's background in motosports, we would be lying if we said we weren't surprised with the company's prowess in the protection department, and the Trigger AM Helmet is no exception. It uses doubl more→e-inmold construction to elevate impact absorption, and a burly polycarbonate shell that takes the brunt of hits — but the tech far from ends there. The Trigger AM packs in a unique ErgoFit Ultra retention system that enables you to adjust your fit both vertically and horizontally, accommodating more head shapes and sizes, while maintaining comfort by avoiding pressure points. An adjustable visor offers coverage from harsh sunny days, but can be moved upwards in three different positions to accommodate go…

We choose the G1 MIPS Helmet for our road rides because the ventilation and aerodynamic profile make it an efficient option for logging miles. 22 total vents keep us cool and Lazer’s Rollsys retention more→system provides a 360degree fit and comfort in a lightweight design that adjusts from the top of the helmet and away from our hair. For added peace of mind, a MIPS layer in the G1 redirects rotational forces in the event of an impact.
