“The Ignite is a great helmet. The shape and fit of the helmet works well with my headshape. A key feature for me is the integration of the helmet with Smith's sunglasses. Being able to stow glasses away in the vents and having confidence that they then won't fall out is a huge win in my book. I went through many combinations and returns before finding the Smith combination of helmet and glasses. My hope is that all future designs for both helmet and glasses have this key integration in mind. I'm glad that I came up on the Smith brand.”

“What can I say or how do I even begin… As I am writing this review to you Smith Sports Optics on this 3rd week from my accident I was struck from behind by a motorist traveling at 45+mph in the bike-lane that didn’t see me because he was negligently on his mobile phone… Currently I’m healing/recovering from my injuries of a acetabular fracture, fractured right clavicle & major muscle tears to my left tricep… Carbon Road Bike is completely totalled, Smith helmet is completely totalled but one thing, it saved my life! I’ve logged thousands of miles with this helmet prior to this incident and I have had no gripes or complaints but this day I felt it was worthy enough to leave a review and to anyone that reads this, please just wear a helmet…”
“I am still in the hospital but I can’t stop thinking about where I would be and in what condition if I didn’t have my recently bought Smith Ignite on me during my crash. I was doing my regular TRI workout session early morning week day on the suburban roads with light traffic …ended up not hitting a van but going at 22mph down the hill but went head first and flipped instead after hitting the front break hard in the last chance attempt. Landed on asphalt with my head then shoulder then my back. I remember vividly the helmet’s contact with the surface.
Didn’t loose my consciousness and was fully aware what a serious situation I just found myself in. The rescue was quick ended up in hospital SICU with fractures on my lower back spine, broken collar bone and ankle…NO HEAD OR NECK INJURY!
While shopping for helmet SAFETY was my priority.. I picked the right one!
Thank you Smith Optics.”
