Best for Trail and enduro mountain biking Riders looking for more coverage than a traditional open-face MTB helmet Riders who want additional protection around the ears and jaw without using a full-face helmet Technical trail riding where ventilation and increased coverage are important Riders who want Mips rotational impact protection Not ideal for Downhill or riding situations requiring a full-face helmet with a chin bar Riders looking for maximum facial protection Road cycling where a lightweight road-specific helmet may be preferred Riders who prefer a traditional low-coverage open-face helmet What this product does The Dropframe Mips provides expanded coverage compared with a conventional open-face mountain bike helmet. Its 3/4 design extends protection around the head, ears, and jaw while leaving the face open for improved airflow and visibility. The helmet combines Mips rotational impact protection with a dual-density Varizorb EPS liner. The liner uses different foam densities to help spread impact forces across a wider area, while the ventilation system uses eight intake vents and seven exhaust vents to move air through the helmet during demanding rides.
