Why We Like The Smith Engage MIPS Helmet
From big sweeping berms to gnarly rock gardens, the Smith Engage MIPS Helmet delivers lightweight comfort and protection for our everyday trail adventures. 20 massive vents and AirEvac technology ensure that we don't overheat due to hot air trapped under our helmet, while MIPS and strategically placed zonal Koroyd help protect our domes if we go over the bars. An adjustable dial lets us lock in our perfect fit without developing annoying pressure points and we can even rock our favorite goggles thanks to the dual position visor.

Well this never happens, I
Well this never happens, I did question the email with the wrong helmet but just passed it off, then you fixed it with this one so I wanted to say that I love this helmet. Hopefully I never have to use the safety features you provide, but so far so good. Love the fit the look and the visor!

Great Trail Helmet
I have been riding with this helmet for about a year. Very comfortable with good airflow. No noticeable noise due to the MIPS while riding. I recently took a hard fall where I hit my head and walked away without a concussion thanks to this. The helmet did not crack or break, but I will be buying a new one to replace it. Would recommend.

The easy to use size
The easy to use size one hand size adjustment band makes for a quick perfect fit when cold weather requires a bit more protection The Chin Strap is also great for secure one hand adjustments on the go The extra protection on the rear just makes me feel safer The flat color is a bit hard to keep clean

The sizing was perfect with
The sizing was perfect with the size chart. I love the style and it’s very comfortable.. however, when I put them on my wife said to me the liner looks crooked. Two out of the four of the yellow bands that hold the liner onto the helmet we’re not joined to the liner.

Seems to be a versatile fit, good ratcheting system for fine tuning the size. Sturdy visor and attachment is adjustable. Padding is not flimsy. Overall quite impressed.
