“I recently picked up the Coyote from Lazer and love its features. It is one of the lightest MTB helmets, easy to customize fit, magnetic buckles for the win, and the color constantly receives compliments. Great way to make your riding crew jealous!”

Features
KinetiCore Controlled Crumple Zones absorb the force of both direct and rotational impacts in the event of a crash to redirect energy into the helmet and away from your head
No more fumbling with your helmet buckle while wearing gloves—the Lazer magnetic buckle can be quickly undone with one hand and gloves on
Recesses in helmet shape remove the pressure on your head caused by the arms of sunglasses
Increase visibility by attaching the Universal Lazer LED (not included) to the hook-and-loop mount at the back of the helmet
Lazer Advanced TurnSys dial system provides a tailored fit that's easy to adjust on the fly
Goggle grip reduces risk of goggle slip and blocking visibility
Improve visibility on the trail and make space for your goggles or eyewear by easily moving the visor up or down
This helmet is 3% lighter than the Lazer Coyote Mips helmet
Uses 10 g less plastic than the Lazer Coyote Mips helmet
For those brisk winter rides, add the soft fleece Winter Kit (not included) for a cold-weather conversion that keeps you powering through all year round

Don't listen to the buckle imapired
Yes , I recommend this product
Great helmet. For those who got past the fifth grade, you have a thumb and index fingers. Use both to pinch the buckle with one hand. Once you figure this out you will really like this helmet

Great Helmet / Nice Fit / Feels Super Safe
Yes , I recommend this product
Amazing helmet. Fits very snug once adjusted but with incredible comfort. Love this color-way as well. Highly recommend. Also noting that REI shipped out this bad boy super quickly and it arrived exactly as estimated.

Just an awesome helmet
Yes , I recommend this product
Comfortable, looks good (I got the Cali), and confident in it's protection.
Used about a half dozen times so far, and just really appreciate this helmet over my last one. The comfort of the Kinetcore pad makes this helmet feel lighter than it is, which isn't heavy. The adjustable visor is a bonus for the price. Adjustability is the same as any other helmet.
For anyone having a hard time trying to undo the magnetic buckle, stop using two hands. It's a snap with the just the left hand.

Amazing Helmet
Yes , I recommend this product
It fits perfectly and is very comfortable. Used it on two rides so far in warm temps and it works great. Has great coverage, nice visor, and fits mountain biking glasses excellently! As far as the buckle goes, it's pretty sad seeing people having issues using it... I would say that it is BY FAR easier than a standard buckle to clip together and take off, especially with gloves! DO NOT take the poor reviews related to the buckle seriously. It is faster to clip together and take apart vs a standard buckle. It's magnetic, clipping together is self explanatory. Taking it apart don't try to pull them apart, you need to slide them the sides. Slide the top part of the buckle towards your neck and the bottom part away from your neck. And if you still can't figure that out, bring it into a mountain bike shop and they will show you. Just know they might tease you a bit after showing you how to use it...

Easy to use buckle led me to get this great helmet
High protection rating .and comfortable fit on my head. Adjustable visor means it works with my touring drop bar bike and my flat bar city bike riding position. Puzzled by the few reviews that dislike the magnetic buckle, which is a chief reason I first chose it. Many squeeze-to-unlock buckles are uncomfortable for my old finger joints to work.

Just what I needed
Yes , I recommend this product
Long story which I'll not share but................I have extreme difficulty buckling my helmet chin strap. Commonly takes several minutes and multiple attempts. Bless my wife and my constant cycling buddy for doing it for me on several occasions when I simply couldn't. Not sure when/where I learned about magnetic buckling systems, but when I did, I knew I had to have one. Because I always ride with a mirror which clips to the visor, finding a helmet with both was my latest quest. So glad I found this one. It fits well, offers great protection and, serendipitously, was on sale at REI!

Excellent in every way
Yes , I recommend this product
Excellent helmet! Bought primarily because of the safety rating, but the helmet is superbly designed and comfortable too. Probably best we’ve ever owned in over 40 yrs of cycling. Bought two, in white for visibility and to best reflect heat. One for my husband and one for myself. Although we ride almost exclusively on roads the adjustable visor works very well for hot sunny days as well as with a helmet mirror.

Great Helmet on a Budget
Yes , I recommend this product
Great helmet for the price, a great fit and feel safe with it on. One complaint, the chin strap is hard to open and close.

Nice helmet but……
No, I do not recommend this product
Nice helmet but……On line it appeared white but it is most definitely gray. I also did not care for the closure on the chin strap. The magnetic close wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. I returned this product.
