This helmet performs as expected, and is overall a great option at this price point. I really like the ventilation design of the this helmet, and it has a great boa adjustment. My only complaint is the ear loop straps. The helmet is bad for people with a low crown height, because you cannot shorten the ear strap loops like every helmet made for the past 50 years. I hope smith returns to the very nice adjustable eat straps still on the network helmet. This change feels like a value loss on all the higher end helmets.

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!

Life Saving
Purchased this helmet a few months ago based on a recommendation. As it turns out, I purchased it about 3 weeks before I was hit by a car that was traveling 60mph while cycling. Throughout my 5 weeks in the hospital, the doctors said that the helmet saved my life. I owe my life to the quality of this helmet. I’ll be a Smith customer for life.
