Product Information
Full details
The Smith Payroll MIPS MTB Helmet is designed for enduro, trail, and E-MTB riders who prioritize speed and advanced safety without sacrificing comfort. Featuring E-bike certification and a combination of Zonal KOROYD and Mips impact technology, it offers superior protection against high-speed impacts and rotational forces. While it provides comprehensive coverage and excellent ventilation, its robust, enduro-focused design may feel slightly bulkier than minimalist cross-country alternatives.

FAQs
Is this helmet safe for standard mountain biking?
Yes. While it is E-bike certified, it meets or exceeds the safety requirements for all traditional trail and enduro mountain biking.
Can I store my goggles on the helmet?
Yes, the three-position adjustable visor is designed to tilt up, allowing you to park your goggles on the front of the helmet between laps.
How do I clean the antimicrobial lining?
The liner can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely before re-inserting it into the helmet.
Does it work with non-Smith eyewear?
It is designed for optimal integration with Smith eyewear, but the versatile fit allows it to accommodate many other brands of glasses and goggles.
What is the benefit of the skeletal structure?
The integrated skeletal structure acts as a roll cage, providing extra reinforcement and structural integrity to the helmet during high-impact events.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels loose or wobbly
Adjust the 270-degree VaporFit dial until the internal cradle grips the back of your head firmly.
Glasses or goggles fogging up
Ensure your eyewear is correctly positioned within the AirEvac channels and that the vents are not obstructed by hair or headband.
Strap tension is uneven
Adjust the Y-strap divider positioned below the ears to ensure the straps lay flat against the face and apply balanced pressure.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Certified for higher speed E-bike impacts
- Excellent integration with goggles and glasses
- Highly adjustable fit system

Cons
- Heavier feel compared to XC-specific lids
- Visor positions might feel limited for some goggle styles

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, start by loosening the rear dial fully before placing the helmet on your head. Rotate the dial until the fit is snug but comfortable, ensuring the helmet sits level on your forehead. If you use Smith goggles, slide them into the integrated storage channels to ensure the strap alignment matches the helmet shell. For cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution. The Ionic+ liner is antimicrobial, but should be removed and hand-washed occasionally to maintain hygiene. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as they can degrade the structural integrity of the shell and foam.
