Description

Drop into banked corners, and roll flowy singletrack with confidence. Designed for those who embrace speed, the Smith Payroll mountain bike helmet offers complete coverage for enduro, trail and E-MTB use. The lightweight design is E-bike certified, which tests helmets at higher speeds than traditional bike helmet certifications. Zonal KOROYD® and Mips® impact technology mean that you can focus on the trail. Our VaporFit™ system lets you adjust the helmet on the fly, and the Mips® layer is integrated with the fit system for a snug, cohesive fit that feels great all day. Generous vents with internal air channels keep you cool while climbing and focused on the descent with fog-free lenses. The three-position visor accommodates sunglasses or goggles between laps or when the sun finally drops below the horizon.

Reviews

Not great

"Very bulky. Honeycomb is extremely loud making it difficult hear your surroundings when riding. Very uncomfortable with sunglasses. Sunglasses can not be stored in the helmet. Overall would not recommend."

Blake W. (2/5)

Good

Danny L. (5/5)

Virginia Tech Study

"I just saw the latest research study from Virginia Tech and now I’m pretty worried about my helmet. Smith was rated pretty low every time for concussion prevention. Please reach out about your thought on this!"

Jake M. (3/5)

Crash Tested

"Bought this early in the season because of the safety ratings. Took a bad fall and actually cracked the helmet. Felt like it did a very good job protecting me head. Would love to see this added to the Virgina Tech helmet testing list to see how it compares. Fit is really good and I honestly don’t mind it being slightly bigger than other helmets. Not super noticeable when riding and it looks good. Bought my wife one too!"

Jesse C. (5/5)
