Mountain Bike Helmets
The bike helmet is the most important and essential safety accessory to have in your cycling gear. Each helmet has specific features depending on the type of discipline, such as mountain biking.
At Primeau Vélo, we have the largest selection of mountain bike helmets from the most recognized brands in the industry, such as Giro, Bell, Poc, Fox Racing and much more!
Features of Mountain Bike Helmets
Many MTB helmets have a visor at the front to protect the face from branches and sunlight. The rear part of mountain bike helmets is generally lower to ensure protection in case of falls. There are also helmets that fully cover the face for extreme styles and tracks, such as downhill and BMX racing.
The outer shell of the helmet should be harder and thicker than that of a road bike helmet. Choose an MTB helmet that offers maximum protection on the sides and back of the head.
For optimal protection, opt for a mountain bike helmet that features one of these technologies, either MIPS or SPIN. They reduce rotational forces to the brain during angled impacts.
