Update to an earlier review

This has been my primary helmet for a couple years. I always rode with confidence but a recent close call proved it. I was commuting to work and hit a patch of black ice and landed on my hip and my head bounced off a curb. My hips still sore and bruised up and my neck will need a few chiropractic visits to heal properly but my heads intact and undamaged. A man driving by was shocked I was able to walk away from the crash seeing it firsthand and I'm forever grateful that this helmet held up and did it's job. Great product.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great MIPS helmet!

I initially bought a different brand of MIPS helmet which I didn't like and returned. This one fits great and is really nice looking. The MIPS insert will make it feel slightly different than a conventional helmet, but was no issue. Very nice helmet and an added benefit of being even safer.

Thank you for your feedback.

Love this helmet

I love the Lazer helmets and this is my third one. Was pleased that this one has the MIPS shell protection. Got a size medium, fits perfetly. Love the top adjuster to make it tight and also the fact my pony-tail can go through the opening. I like the Z1 model and as others have indicated, the front doesn't impact my vision like some others.

Thank you for your feedback.

Bright, Light & MIPS! What could be better!

There is no downside. The Hi-Viz yellow stands out, the helmet itself is light on the lid and with MIPS! That's a win-win-WIN!

Comfortable and light weight helmet with GREAT safety reviews

I road bike for 1.25 hours (20+ miles) every other day as part of my workout regime. The helmet is comfortable and lightweight to the point that you don't even know it is there. And, the helmet has MIPS; Multi-directional Impact Protection System. Having gone done before I know how important it is to have a quality helmet.

Thank you for your feedback.

A solid 5-star rating for the best helmet out there.

When it became time to purchased a new helmet there was no decision, ... it was going be a Lazer Z1 in the cool hi-vis yellow. It's down to being comfortable, protected and being seen.

Thank you for your feedback.

For the Heat

light, positionally stable, and comfortably accommodates a variety of eyewear. Ratcheting system not as precise as Giro or Bell MIPS'. Base sizing seems slightly different. Purchased because of the pony-tail feature which allows me to tie a wetted headband, with the ends laying upon my neck. The tie stays in place and the ends are re-wetted for coolness. It is my go-to hot weather helment and has been on my head since late May.

Thank you for your feedback.

Getting Ahead

The helmet fits well and is lower profile, less mushroom-y than a typical helmet. I hope I don't get a chance to weigh in on how well it protects in a crash.

Great helmet

Ligth weight, very comfortable, excellent ventilation, straps are top notch. Fits my head really well. As far as the aesthetics of the helmet, Im a bit torn........

Ive had a lot of helmets, as Ive been riding for 20 years, and its the best Ive ever had.

Great fit, easy to adjust, piece of mind

After an unfavorable encounter with a car, I found myself hyper focused on safety. I have been a Giro guy for the last 5 years, but wanted to try something different that included MIPS. Also, I wanted to try the fit system in the Lazar helmets (a buddy raves about it, so why not). Im very happy with the helmet. As always, it pays to check fit in the store.

Thank you for your feedback.

A Fantastic Helmet that is easy to use

Another great helmet from Lazer!! it has all of othe great features from Lazer including the Rollsys tighting system. The Z1 has plenty of vents and I havent had a problem with it in Houston's heat. I normally wear a L from Lazer with the Rollsys set on the tightest setting but because of the MIPS the helmets tends to feel a size smaller so if you are in between I would Size up

Thank you for your feedback.

Fits like a dream

I have a pretty small head and often end up looking like I've got a mushroom on my head when I wear a helmetbut not the Z1. Fits snug but not too tight.

Great helmet

This is my second Z1. My first one was damaged in a crash. I think it saved my life or, at minimum, a severe head injury.
