Avenue MIPS LED

MIPS, or Multi-directional Impact Protection System, is a slip-plane layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational forces during certain types of impacts. It provides an extra layer of protection by allowing the helmet to slide slightly relative to your head during a crash.

While the Avenue MIPS is designed specifically for urban environments and commuting, it can certainly be used for recreational rides. However, it lacks the advanced aerodynamics and ventilation channels found in dedicated road racing helmets, so it may feel warmer on very long, high-intensity rides.

No, the padding in this model is not designed to be removed. To keep it clean, we recommend wiping the interior with a damp cloth and mild soap, then letting it air dry completely.

This helmet is not specifically engineered for eyewear compatibility. Depending on the shape of your glasses' arms, you may find that they interfere with the helmet's retention system or sit uncomfortably against your temples.

The half-shell design offers standard coverage for the top and back of the head, which is typical for urban and recreational cycling. It is lightweight and breathable, making it comfortable for daily use, though it does not provide the extended rear or side coverage found in specialized mountain bike helmets.
