KaskCaipi MTB Helmet(Return to Product Page)

Needed a new endurance XC racing helmet but getting a bit older wanted a bit more protection vs using a road helmet like the past. This is my first MTB specific helmet and fell in love. Put it on and went for a ride and actually forgot about it so it must fit great. Prior tried on a Smith Session, and Lazer. Both seemed heavy without being on the bike so imagined it might be worse in a long 6-12hr race and the Smith had a torturous retention system. This Caipi fit the bill perfect. BTW, you don't notice the visor even though it stay in one position. Only remote negative is the orange is muddled and not a bright orange. BUT, if that is my only complaint, it is a win.

I purchased the orange medium helmet on a BTD sale. That's where the value rating comes from. I wear a medium Giro and Specialized and this fits the same. It has a strange feel to the inner cage when you first set it on your head but nothing noticeable once it's locked down and it stays put. Wearing it on the road mostly. Has a real leather chin strap, that may be a problem for some. Visor is a must for me, I'll sacrifice a stiff neck to prevent a burnt nose any day. Did I mention It's lightweight ?

I purchased this helmet in August of 2020. The foam on the front of helmet is gone as of August 2022. I tried to buy a new foam pad but Kask stated they were not available. Also I wasn't sure they updated the foam design. I still like the helmet but I have to wear a head band or hat under it.

The best MTB helmet I have owned. Use to only buy Giro helmets but not anymore. This is light, fits well, and Primo looks.
