Bluegrass Legit Helmet
Best premium full face protection for dedicated downhill mountain bikers.
This full-face lid strikes a rare balance between heavy-duty protection and all-day wearability. While it sacrifices the lightweight feel of an open-face design, the added hearing vents and superior airflow make it surprisingly easy to forget you’re wearing a gravity-focused helmet until you actually need it.
