S1 Lifer Helmet

It means the helmet has passed safety testing standards for both cycling (CPSC 16 CFR Part 1203) and skateboarding (ASTM F-1492-15). This makes it a legitimate choice for high-impact activities like dirt jumping or skating, where you need protection against both single high-force crashes and repeated smaller impacts.

The deep fit design sits lower on your head than a standard bicycle helmet, providing more coverage around the back and sides of your skull. While it offers superior protection, it may feel slightly more substantial or 'bulky' if you are used to lightweight, minimalist road cycling helmets.

Yes, the interior padding is removable, which makes it easy to wash or replace. We recommend hand washing the pads with mild soap and air drying them to maintain their shape and hygiene.

While it is safe for cycling, it is optimized for dirt jumping, street riding, and skating rather than road cycling. It lacks the extensive ventilation channels found in dedicated road helmets, so you may find it runs warmer during long, high-exertion rides.

Standard foam helmets are often designed for a single major impact, after which they should be replaced. The EPS Fusion Foam used here is engineered to handle both high-impact crashes and repeated low-force impacts, making it more durable for action sports where minor bumps are common.
