“Bought this helmet to ride at Trestle with some of the juniors I coach on our mountain bike team. I've never owned a full face helmet and thought it would be hot and heavy, but just the opposite. The helmet is super light weight and great ventilation. I love the added pads that allow you to get a perfect fit.”

“I took a bad crash and landed straight on my head. My Mainline was destroyed, along with my T4 and T6 vertebrae. This was a high impact trauma with a lot of force. After a number of CT scans I did not have any brain damage or a concussion. I did need spinal fusion surgery, but luckily I will have a full recovery. Both myself and all of the doctors were amazed that nothing happened to my head. I can confidently say that the Mainline helped prevent major head trauma and possibly saved my life. I am so thankful for the impeccable design of this product. It was worth every penny regardless of the price. I have been a long-time supporter and will continue. You all have been great to me over the years. Thank you Smith!”

“This is my second Mainline, and I will never ride without one. I broke a fall with my head, and I know that if it wasn't for the MIPS and Koroyd Impact symptoms, I would have have had a brain injury. When I hit, I could feel the helmet rotate, which I assume is the MIPS working to prevent the rotation of my head on my neck, I could feel and hear the crunching of the Koroyd. If not for that, my skull would have been damaged if I was wearing inferior head protection. As a Physical Therapist who has worked with people suffering from a traumatic brain injury, or post concussion syndrome, I will always send safely with my Mainline.”
