Reviews

A new favorite

"All around, its a great helmet. Yes, its a little warmer than most but I guess have only been out riding in the cold so far in it since getting it. Its comfortable, fits well, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for an aero helmet. I had my first race of the season on 2/7, and took a turn in the rain too aggressively and ended up going down hard on the asphalt. The helmet Koroyd Mips did its job and crumpled right where I landed on my head. Time to order a new one!"

Chance (5/5)

Probably saved my life

"Burped my tubeless front tire and went down on a roundabout. Hit my head HARD, way worse than any football hit during my collegiate career. Helmet remained intact; amazingly no concussion. Would surely be dead without a helmet. Not sure if this helmet did any better than others, but I'm buying a replacement today. I like the comfort and aero as well."

Steve K. (5/5)

Great helmet!

"Very comfortable. Looks great too!"

Terence D. (5/5)

Best helmet

"Got into a car accident where my bike ended up in in three pieces and I myself sustained some pretty bad injuries. The only thing that remained intact was my head which suffered not even a bruise. Immediately bought a second helmet as soon as I was healed."

Vincent-Francis Y. (5/5)

Pleasantly surprised.

"I've been eying this helmet for a few years now and after finally getting it, I'm pretty stoked. I wish I would have switched to it earlier."

Jeremy (5/5)

Great fit

"Lightweight and comfy"

Jessica E. (5/5)

Great helmet

"I love this helmet! It fits well, very comfortable, easy to adjust. It's breathable and cool. And my glasses fit well on top!"

Amy H. (5/5)

Aero and stylish

"My go-to road racing helmet. Doesn’t feel like it fits as snug as my SMITH triad helmet, but it checks all the boxes otherwise. Looks cool and feels cool!"

Hannah T. (5/5)

Life Saver

"I took a nasty spill today, and I’d likely be dead if not for this helmet. My head hit HARD. No head injury whatsoever. Awesome helmet."

Michael (5/5)

Saved my life

"Had a nasty crash at 36mph and the helmet crumbled and cracked taking a huge amount of force. Don’t remember much but the emergency room doc telling me if I had a worse helmet I probably wouldn’t be here. So I’m insanely thankful for all the safety features of this helmet. Plus it looks good!"
