Endura MT500 MIPS Helmet

While it is built for the rigors of enduro racing, the lightweight construction makes it comfortable enough for long days on the bike. However, if your rides involve significant climbing, you may find it warmer and heavier than a traditional open-face trail helmet.

The MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows it to slide slightly during an angled impact. This movement helps redirect rotational forces away from your head, which can reduce the severity of brain injuries compared to a standard helmet.

The helmet is engineered to offer a wide field of vision, ensuring you can see the trail clearly without the chin bar obstructing your peripheral view. It is designed to be compatible with most standard mountain bike goggles, which will integrate seamlessly with the helmet's shape.

The interior padding is removable and washable, which is essential for managing sweat after intense rides. We recommend hand washing the pads with mild soap and letting them air dry completely before reattaching them to ensure the helmet stays fresh.

Yes, the profile of the Endura MT500 is designed to accommodate most modern neck braces. The lower shell shape is sculpted to prevent interference with the brace, allowing for a full range of head movement while riding.
