The ear loops don’t match the photo. They don’t fit right. Also the helmet doesn’t fit like the older model. It’s a bit tight at the temples.
This purchase is to replace the Trace I was wearing when I went over the handlebars a couple of months ago. Impact was hard enough that I fractured my hip. While my head impacted the pavement with considerable force, the concussion I experienced was relatively minor. With a cheap helmet or no helmet at all, serious brain injury would have been a certainty. Along with saving my bacon, I rode 3000+ miles wearing this helmet. Super comfortable, great ventilation, lightweight, easy to adjust; love this helmet.
i love the honeycomb insect guard. I got stung by a bee last year and it almost killed me. so this helmet was my answer. It seems a little hot, but maybe that's just because I am putting out a lot of watts so I'd be hot in anything. I love the look of this helmet. The sunglasses hold in the arm slots pretty tight.
Fantastic helmet for mountain biking. Yes, this is not a true MTB helmet (I already own the Smith Forefront 2), but I wanted a helmet without a visor. For me, Smith is the best fit. Highly recommended.
I like the looks of this helmet as well as the fit.
My second Trace helmet. Even better than the first.
