Product Information
Full details
The Smith Optics Persist MIPs Helmet is designed for adult cyclists seeking a blend of style, safety, and comfort. Its key benefit is enhanced protection through the Mips® Brain Protection System and robust in-mold construction, ensuring peace of mind on every ride. A minor caveat is that the ventilation, while effective, might be less optimized for extreme heat compared to helmets with larger vent openings. This helmet features a lightweight design, superior impact protection, excellent ventilation with 21 vents and AirEvac™ system, and convenient eyewear integration.

FAQs
What does Mips® Brain Protection System do?
The Mips® system is a low-friction layer inside the helmet designed to reduce rotational motion transferred to the brain from angled impacts.
How do I clean my Smith Optics Persist helmet?
You can clean your helmet using a soft cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Is this helmet suitable for all types of cycling?
The Persist MIPs helmet is CPSC and CE EN 1078 certified, making it suitable for road cycling and general cycling activities where these standards apply.
How can I store my sunglasses when not wearing them?
The helmet features pass-through channels on the front specifically designed for convenient eyewear storage.
What is the benefit of the AirEvac™ ventilation system?
The AirEvac™ system works with internal air channels to actively manage airflow, keeping you cool and preventing your eyewear from fogging up.
How do I adjust the helmet for a better fit?
Use the integrated dial fit system located at the rear of the helmet to easily adjust the fit for a secure and comfortable feel.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the rear dial fit system until a comfortable and secure fit is achieved. Ensure straps are correctly positioned.
Straps are uncomfortable
Re-position the strap dividers below the ears and adjust the slider for a Y-shape under each earlobe. Tighten or loosen the chin strap as needed.
Eyewear fogging persists
Ensure the AirEvac™ system is not obstructed and that the helmet is positioned correctly on your head. Check for proper eyewear fit.
Helmet has been in an impact
Replace the helmet immediately, even if damage is not visible. Internal structural damage can compromise its protective capabilities.
