Reviews

Great helemt, poor customer support

"Loved the helmet the day I purchased it from REI. Run into issues when the liner started falling apart after 2. 5 years of use. Replacement liners for Smith helmets are only randomly available from SmithOptics website, in size and model you need. If you are the lucky one and your size is available, be prepared to pay additional $15 for shipping, You could buy these liners wholesale (9 sets minimum) to qualify for free shipment, if they have 9 sets of the same size."

— Arsen R. (2/5)

internal pad velcro does not stick

"The pads inside the helmet don't stick well to the helmet itself. the velcro just seems very poor. I have managed to get by for about 18 months now but with a lot of frustration. After significant workouts they just fall away from the helmet when you take it off. This means I have had to re-attach them multiple times and even nearly lost them when out, having removed my helmet for a period before returning to my bike. When they move while biking or while placing the helmet on my head it can cause discomfort from the sharp velcro scratching my head. Now I just accept that the velcro inside the helmet will regularly start to scratch my forehead until I find a replacement helmet. The visor is a nice idea but again the velcro does not stick in place and so it fell off and got lost a while ago."

"Great helmet. Perfect fit and super comfortable."

— Alek (5/5)

"The picture does not show this helmet that I received I thought I ordered the same color but it was metallic not the matte"

— Robbie (1/5)

Versatile Helmet

"Light, technical helmet good for everyday riding and longer workouts. Well ventilated, good fit. Matte color is a clean look."

— Laurie P. (5/5)

Exactly what i needed

"Fits my head perfectly. Comfortable and well cushioned. Lots of air flow for hot days. Adjustments are easy to tighten once you put it on."

— Scott K. (5/5)

Sweet spot helmet

"Hands down the most comfortable helmet i've had experience with. Light and easy to adjust as well. Havent had any hot weather to ride in yet, but suspect it will cool nicely."

— Reed D. (5/5)

Helmet saved my noggin

"I just replaced my old helmet with the Smith Persist this spring. I crashed on pavement and cracked the helmet, but I am ok. The advanced helmet technology really worked! Thank you, Smith! I love the style and comfort of this helmet, so I ordered the exact same one as a replacement."

— Deb R. (5/5)

Light and comfortable.

"This helmet is light and comfortable. I’ve been cycling for about twelve years and this is the first time I’m trying Smith. It is the lightest helmet I’ve ever worn. I love the adjustable points just below the ear. I think the price point is just right for the safety features."

— Stephanie (5/5)

Great helmet- chin strap hardware too adjustable

"This is a great helmet, fits as expected. Looks good with or without a cycling cap. Only concern is that the strap adjustment under the chin is quite easily adjustable- this is great for quick and easy adjustments, but I can pull the chin strap and it loosens so I am actually concerned that it will loosen upon impact."

— Christine L. (4/5)
