Product Information

Full details

The Fox Speedframe Pro MIPS MTB Helmet is a high-performance open-face mountain bike helmet designed for aggressive trail riders who demand superior safety and ventilation. Engineered with professional athlete input, it features industry-leading MIPS rotational impact protection and a dual-density Varizorb EPS liner to maximize safety on technical terrain. While it provides elite-level protection and comfort features like a magnetic Fidlock buckle, riders should be aware that the aggressive aesthetic and feature set are optimized specifically for trail riding rather than road cycling or cross-country racing.

FAQs

Is this helmet compatible with glasses?

Yes, the helmet is designed with internal channels and geometry that allow for comfortable integration with most riding glasses.

How often should I replace the helmet?

It is recommended to replace any helmet after a significant impact, or every 3 to 5 years depending on frequency of use and wear.

Can the liner be machine washed?

It is best to hand wash the XT2 liner in cold water with mild soap and let it air dry to prevent damage to the antimicrobial material.

What is MIPS and why does it matter?

MIPS is an interior layer that allows the helmet to slide relative to the head during an impact, significantly reducing the rotational energy transmitted to the brain.

Is the visor removable?

The visor is adjustable, but it is intended to remain attached to the helmet shell for protection from debris and sun.

Troubleshooting

Helmet feels wobbly on the head

Ensure the 360-degree retention dial is tightened sufficiently and adjust the straps to sit flat against the skin.

Fidlock buckle is difficult to engage

Check the magnetic area for mud or debris and clean with a damp cloth to ensure the magnet can snap into place.

Visor keeps slipping

Check the side pivot points to ensure the visor is clicked firmly into one of the three designated adjustment positions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

High level of rotational protection with MIPS integration
Excellent ventilation for hot weather riding
Convenient one-handed operation with Fidlock buckle
Highly adjustable fit system for varied head shapes
Goggle and glasses compatible design

Cons

Open-face design offers less coverage than full-face helmets
Higher price point compared to entry-level trail helmets
Style is distinctly optimized for MTB, less suitable for road commuting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the perfect fit, start by loosening the 360-degree retention system before placing the helmet on your head. Once on, tighten the dial at the back until the helmet feels snug but comfortable. Ensure the chin strap is adjusted so the Fidlock buckle sits securely under the jaw. The helmet is compatible with most standard MTB goggles; test the visor position before riding to ensure clear sightlines. For care, remove the XT2 liner periodically to wash it in cold water with mild detergent. Always air-dry the liner and the helmet shell away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the foam.
