Bern Macon 2.0

MIPS, or Multi-directional Impact Protection System, is an integrated layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational forces during an impact. It allows the helmet to slide slightly relative to your head, which helps protect your brain from the damaging energy often associated with angled crashes.

Yes, this helmet is designed for multisport use. Because it carries the ASTM F1492-15 certification, it is rated for impact protection suitable for activities like skateboarding and rollerblading, in addition to standard bicycle riding.

The EZ-Fit system uses an elastic adjustment mechanism that automatically conforms to your head shape when you put the helmet on. It removes the need for manual dial adjustments, providing a secure, snug feel right out of the box.

Yes, the Macon 2.0 is compatible with specific Bern rear lighting accessories. This allows you to easily clip a light onto the back of the helmet to increase your visibility to drivers during low-light commutes.

Yes, the interior padding is removable. This makes it easy to wash the liner periodically to keep the helmet fresh, especially if you use it for high-exertion activities where you might sweat.

The 12 ventilation ports are strategically placed to promote consistent airflow across the top of your head. While it offers solid cooling for a multisport helmet, it is designed with a low-profile aesthetic, so it may feel slightly warmer than a dedicated, highly-vented racing helmet.
