Solstice MIPS

Mips stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System. It is a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows the shell to slide slightly during an angled impact, which helps reduce the rotational forces that can be transferred to the brain.

Yes, it is designed for one-handed adjustment. The dial at the back is intuitive and easy to turn, allowing young riders to quickly tighten or loosen the fit for a secure, comfortable feel without needing help.

Absolutely. The visor is fully removable, giving you the flexibility to change the helmet's style or improve visibility depending on the riding conditions.

The moisture-wicking pads are designed to be easily removed. You can simply take them out and wash them to keep the helmet fresh and hygienic for daily use.

If your child is involved in an accident within the first year of ownership, Trek will replace the helmet for free. It is a safety net that provides peace of mind for parents and encourages young riders to get back on their bikes.

The Solstice MIPS is optimized for path and pavement riding. While it offers excellent safety, it is specifically engineered for the ventilation and comfort needs of casual, everyday cycling rather than aggressive trail riding.
