Our take on the Smith Network MIPS

The Smith Network MIPS is an all-round bike helmet for road and trail riding. It pairs a MIPS liner with 15 fixed vents, an adjustable removable visor and pass-through channels that hold sunglasses when the sun goes down. At about 11 oz in size M it is light for a MIPS helmet, and the XT2 lining resists odor. It suits riders who want one helmet for commuting, gravel and singletrack rather than a dedicated aero or full-face model.

Questions and answers

What is MIPS and do I need it?
MIPS is a low-friction liner that lets the helmet slide slightly on impact to reduce rotational forces. It adds protection beyond a standard shell and is worth having for road and trail riding.
Can I wear sunglasses with it?
Yes. The pass-through channels let you stash sunglasses in the helmet when you take them off.
Is it good for trail riding?
It covers cross-country and light trail use well, with a removable visor and camera or light mount. It is not a full-face or deep-coverage enduro helmet.
How does it compare with the Smith Convoy?
The Network is lighter and more ventilated, aimed at road and XC riders. The Convoy is a more budget-oriented trail helmet with a different fit system.
What safety standards does it meet?
It complies with the U.S. CPSC bicycle helmet standard and CE EN 1078.
Can I mount a light or camera?
Yes, the helmet is compatible with camera and light mounts.
