Versatile, High-Performance Protection and Seamless Integration on Two Wheels
The Smith Optics Network MIPS Helmet is a sleek, modern-looking cycling helmet meticulously engineered for riders who demand cross-discipline versatility, superior cooling, and elite impact protection. Built with a rugged, solid polycarbonate shell fused to an EPS liner, this helmet provides exceptional long-term durability for tarmac fast-packing, gravel grinds, or local cross-country singletrack. The foundational safety profile is amplified by a dual-defense system combining a MIPS® Brain Protection System to reduce rotational forces from angled impacts and strategically placed zonal Koroyd® coverage—an innovative honeycomb structure that collapses uniformly upon impact to absorb energy while maximizing lightweight breathability.
Every structural detail of the Network is optimized to keep you comfortable and focused when the ambient temperature rises. The advanced AirEvac™ ventilation system features twenty optimized vent ports that actively pull hot, stagnant air away from your face and forehead, effectively forcing air through the internal channels to keep your performance eyewear completely fog-free. For custom-fit perfection, the helmet utilizes the low-profile VaporFit™ dial adjustment system that controls a full-circumference headband, ensuring a pressure-free, individualized fit that sits comfortably under a cycling cap or winter skull liner.
Key Features:
- Zonal Koroyd® Impact Defense: Honeycomb structure is strategically placed in critical impact zones to provide lightweight, energy-absorbing crash protection.
- MIPS® Brain Protection System: Low-friction internal liner allows 10–15mm of relative movement during a crash to redirect damaging rotational energies.
- AirEvac™ Eyewear Ventilation: Engineered internal air routing pulls heat from your brow line to eliminate lens fogging on humid, high-effort climbs.
- Front-Panel Shade Channels: Specialized pass-through side channels provide secure, rattle-free storage for your sunglasses when daylight dips.
- VaporFit™ Dial Custom Adjustment: Intuitive micro-adjustable turn-dial system provides 270-degree circumference tuning for a rock-solid, comfortable fit.
- Ionic+® Antimicrobial Lining: Sweat-wicking, silver-activated interior fabric lining prevents bacterial growth and inhibits odor generation over seasons of hard riding.
- Removable Fabric Visor: Low-profile fabric visor blocks sun glare and passing rain, detaching instantly to streamline the helmet for strict road configurations.
