When it comes to road riding, we're not taking any chances, and that's why we turn to the Smith Persist MIPS Helmet when we head out the door. Recently updated to add the honeycomb-like Koroyd in vital zones to compliment the MIPS rotational impact system, this helmet provides all the protection we need whether we're heading out on a fast-paced lunch ride or a meandering weekend century. The AirEvac system features 21 vents for plenty of airflow at any speed and specific channels up front to give us a spot to stow our sunglasses when the sun starts to dip behind the clouds for the day.
