Specialized Camber Helmet

Virginia Tech is an independent testing facility that evaluates helmets based on their ability to reduce concussion risk. A 5-star rating is the highest possible score, indicating this helmet provides superior protection against rotational and linear impacts compared to lower-rated models.

Not at all. MIPS is an internal slip-plane layer designed to move slightly during an impact to reduce rotational forces on your brain. It is integrated seamlessly into the helmet's liner, so you won't feel it while you are riding.

No, the helmet is 'ready' for the sensor, meaning it has a dedicated mount point, but the ANGi sensor itself is sold separately. If you choose to purchase one, it clips easily into the mount to provide crash detection and live tracking through the Specialized Ride app.

The system uses 13 vents and internal channels to pull air across your scalp and exhaust heat out the back. It is highly effective for mountain biking, where speeds are often lower and airflow is less consistent than on a road bike.

The Headset SX fit system is highly adjustable, allowing you to dial in the fit both horizontally and vertically. While no helmet fits every head shape perfectly, this system offers a wide range of customization to accommodate most riders securely.

For a mountain bike-specific helmet with this level of safety certification and coverage, 400g is a standard, comfortable weight. It is designed to be substantial enough for trail protection without feeling heavy or causing neck fatigue on longer rides.
