SMITH Convoy MTB Cycling Helmet – Adult Mountain Bike Helmet with MIPS Technology + Visor – Lightweight Impact Protection for Men & Women

I'm a road cyclist, and I live where it's hot all summer, and have mild winters. I haven't experienced it in the winter, but in an area that it's very hot I have to say there's great airflow in this helmet. I'm also not a new cyclist. My rides vary from about 15-40 miles at a time, over hills and along flats, but on paved trails. I also have a big head for a female, and hats often don't fit my head correctly. My husband has a narrow head for a man. We both ordered size medium and it fits us both very well. It feels like my head actually goes INTO this helmet and not just parked on top. It easily adjusts for snugness. Straps are comfy and easy to adjust as well. I feel like it covers enough of the back of my head, which for me is a must-have. Love it so far! I got black and it looks great. I wish there were a lot more fun colors, but I have absolutely ZERO complaints about this helmet and would recommend it to someone in the market for a safe, lightweight, comfortable helmet. It feels durable and great quality. Super stoked with this one.

Excellent helmet! Super comfortable, lightweight, and the MIPS technology adds great peace of mind for safety. The ventilation keeps my head cool on long rides, and the visor is perfect for sunny trails. Looks great and fits perfectly — worth every penny!

I got this because I wanted a Smith helmet. I have Giro road helmet but felt Smith was more of a Mountain Bike brand name. It was discounted and on Prime so I went for it, and I am happy I did! I took this to Arkansas in November to do some singletrack. The temps were 40-60 degrees so it was not hot out, but we got pretty hot and I know the feeling of a helmet that doesn't breathe, this one did breathe and I didn't feel stuffy, I really didn't even feel it on me because it is pretty light and it fit well. Note that I am a regular rider so I am used to wearing a helmet, but I have worn many uncomfortable helmets over 15+ years. This one is comfortable and light. A new rider may notice it more than I do, but this is a good one in my opinion and I have had maybe 10 helmets. the adjustable straps and knob made it easy to adjust to fit my head. The straps were a bit long once I adjusted them but I tucked them up. At some point I may cut them or rubber band them but they worked fine tucked in for a full weekend of riding 6 hours a day. Happy to have this helmet as my trail/singletrack helmet alongside my road helmet for road biking and my full face helmet for downhill.

Great price and the sizing is true to fit. The helmet lets in an unbelievable amount of airflow. I happy to find one in the color I was after.

I bought a new bike this year. Wanted to get motivated to ride to work more. Bought new padding for my old helmet all was good. A young man that works for me rides his bike to work everyday. He told me that I should replace my helmet every 5 years or so. Makes sense and I figured I would try something different than my Giro. I've had two Giro helmets before this one this last one I've had for 11 years. I'm going to keep it had as back up. Not knowing anything about new helmets and seeing there were a lot of choices I picked this one for a few reasons. One the name. I know about Smith they are a little pricey but figured I'd give it a try. I don't need a crazy expensive helmet and I know you get what you pay for in the cheap ones. MIPS, never heard of this but if they say it's safer then it's an added measure of feeling good knowing it will protect me from injury in the event of a crash. I grew up in the 80's and 90's and rode without a helmet up until I bought a nice mountain bike. So anything to me is better than nothing. The 11 year old Giro that I have still looks good and has been kept in inside. I know the material could be brittle but again anything is better than nothing at all. I like the black. I bought some red reflective stickers to place around it for looks and better function. The padding is good the tighten adjuster is easy. I like the click of the wheel giving you minor adjustability to dial in the fit. When it's cold in the morning I wear a cap that I have to adjust it out to fit then during lunch or the ride home in the afternoon is easy to adjust back. Chin adjustment is easy too. The visor seems easy to get on and off. I typically had taken the visor off because on my Giro they didn't stay on very well. I've left it on so far it's been okay and well in place. Overall so far it's a great helmet. I've never had any major crashes with any of my helmets and this would be the third helmet I've owned in 17 years of riding. I've been riding to work three or four days a week for the last three weeks. Compared to the Giro that I just replaced the pads on it this one seems to be just as comfortable. The only thing that's really different is the adjuster to tighten it to your head. Oh and I guessed on the size I bought a medium and it fits perfectly. Most of the Giro helmets that I was looking at were universal in size. As I said you get what you pay for if you're serious about safety then spending an extra few dollars on a good helmet is worth it. But with that said anything is better than nothing. I'm surprised I survived childhood with no helmet and I was many wrecks and crashes. This is about $20 higher than the Giro's I was looking at and you can get a better fit with more specific sizes. This is also as light in weight as my old Giro. All the really cheap helmets I looked like they had a light in the back of it which meant it had a battery which to me would make it heavier. Overall I like this helmet so far. We'll see how long it last. Instruction manual says replace after three years that seems kinda short. But they gotta try and make money too. Happy helmet hunting. 10-17-23: Update I'm knocking off a star. I've had this for over 2 years one of the straps broke on the back of the bracket. I noticed it today while riding to lunch. I can still wear it, I'll try and tape it or zip tie back together and keep it as a backup if needed. The area where it broke is pretty thin. I figure the other side would probably break too. I ordered another helmet just in case. I like this helmet and had no issues until today. I decided to go back to my Giro helmets simply because they have so many options and are relatively cheaper than this helmet. I like to pay around $50 to $60 dollar. The Giro that I bought was discontinued so it was much cheaper than original price. As I said the the Smith is a fine helmet. I guess the owners manual is right the life span is about 3 years. It's only been about 2 and half years since I bought it and don't ride year round. I'm sure their higher end more expensive helmets are better in quality. Some might have better luck to keep longer than 2 and half or 3 years. This was not my experiance.

Great quality. fits well.

This helmet literally saved my life. The first time I ever wore it, I went right over my handlebars mountain biking and landed directly on my head. Broke the helmet, but I walked out without even a concussion. Ordered two more on the way home because now I will, quite literally, trust this helmet with my life.

Love this helmet. Fits great and is comfortable, I use it for road riding primarily, and some gravel rides. I like helmets with brims because the bright, hot Texas sun is always in my eyes. Even with sun glasses on I need to shade my forehead and my eyes from excess glare.

Ha sido un regalo. Bonito diseño y cómodo

Vorab: der Rezension von Stephan sei Dank wusste ich um die übergroße "Einheitsgröße", die mir bei 62cm Kopfumfang gut passt. Die Beschreibung ist diesbezüglich aber mangelhaft. Der Helm selber ist ein schwarzer Fahrradhelm ohne äußerlichen Schnickschnack, aber auch ohne Mängel. Einzige Farbtupfer bei Auslieferung sind das "XL"-Klebchen auf dem Visier und das gelbe MIPS-Logo am Hinterkopf. Die (Kinn-)Gurtung neigt zum Verdrehen, weil man sie am hinteren Ende des Helms nirgendwo befestigen kann. Die Größe / der Kopfumfang ist über das inzwischen übliche Drehrad am Hinterkopf einstellbar, somit sitzt der Helm gut. Auf lange Haltbarkeit gebaut wirken die dünnen, recht starren Plastikstreben nicht, bisher halten sie aber allen Belastungen stand. Angenehm ist die großzügige Polsterung über der Stirn, wodurch auch Schweiß aufgesaugt wird und weniger in's Gesicht läuft. Beleuchtung gibt es keine, auch nicht optional; der vordere Sonnenschutz ist abnehmbar und nur mit vier Dornen befestigt, sodass er einerseits nicht besonders belastbar ist, andererseits aber auch keine großen Krater bei Abnahme hinterlässt. Das kommt mir entgegen, ich fahre lieber ohne. Alleinstellungsmerkmal in dieser Preisklasse ist das integrierte MIPS, das (besser) vor axonalem Schertrauma bei Stürzen schützen soll. Ich hoffe, dass ich nie herausfinden werde, ob es dieses Versprechen auch hält. In Anbetracht des Preises von knapp 60 Euro sind alle kleinen Kritikpunkte gut zu verschmerzen. Wer einen Fiat Panda bezahlt, bekommt eben nicht das Fahrgefühl einer S-Klasse. Fazit: In seiner (Preis-)Klasse ist der Helm ein echter Tipp, hinter den Standardmodellen der bekannten Marken braucht er sich nicht verstecken. MIPS ist ein zusätzliches Kaufargument.

Ottimo casco, lo uso da circa 1 annetto su emtb, per fortuna non sono mai caduto per testare il suo reale scopo, ma la ventilazione è ottima, la regolazione in testa avviene in pochi secondi e rimane ben saldo sulla testa. Ottima rapporto qualità/prezzo
