“The Mainline is a great product. The fit is excellent. The lightweight but protective performance is exactly what I'm looking for in a full-face helmet.”

“I bought the Mainline, because I started racing DH this year on my single crown MTB. I have a 2-piece DH-rated helmet, but I wanted something a bit more substantial for actually racing downhill.
The Mainline punches well above its weight (It IS LIGHT for a DH-rated full face) for the protection it provides. I was amazed at how light it felt compared to my other helmet, while still breathing incredibly well, and providing great protection.
While practicing for my DH race run on race day, the entire mountain lost power, and the lifts went out of service. I ride an enduro bike and race Enduro, so I pedaled up and dropped in for my first practice run of the day. It managed heat well, and kept me reasonably cool. I still managed to get two practice runs in!
Thanks to that experience, I'm planning to start using the Mainline for my Enduro racing as well. I just find that I ride looser when I have some protection for my face. The Mainline is a fantastic option.”
“I love this helmet and would have gave it a 5-star review, but I found the MIPS system was annoyingly creaky. Fortunately I discovered that if I sprinkle baby powder under the MIPS membrane, and then blow it all out with a compressor, the helmet becomes perfectly silent (and also smells better). :o)”

“Excellent fit, thoughtful mandible design (opening at front), and better looks than competitors. I felt more confident at Whistler with this helmet. Ventilation is not tops but I’ll take it.”
