With a new head form that provides a better fit for more riders, the redesigned Roost features trusted Mips protection, a precise three-position rear-height adjustable fit system, increased ventilation, and modern styling. Certified five-star by the world-renowned Virginia Tech Helmet Safety Lab, Roost is a lightweight go-to helmet for charging the toughest trails.

Key Performance Factors

IMPROVED FIT

If you’ve ever felt a need to size up and cinch down to get the right feeling of width without pressure, the new Roost’s rounder shape offers a more balanced overall feel.

MAXIMUM PROTECTION

A trusted Mips rotational impact liner reduces rotational forces that would otherwise be transmitted to the brain during impact. With a five-star rating from Virginia Tech’s Helmet Safety Lab, it’s the standard for comfortable, lightweight protection.

COOL COMFORT

Twelve oversized, head-cooling vents and an intuitive rear height adjustment system let you think less about how your helmet feels and more about the trail.

Highlights

Featuring the trusted lightweight Mips rotational impact liner, in-molded upper and lower PC shells, and a redesigned three-position rear-height fit system, the new Roost combines trusted protection with cool comfort and looks.

Techs & Features

Mips Evolve Core

Mips Evolve Core is designed to add protection in helmets against the rotational motion. The rotational motion is a combination of rotational energy (angular velocity) and rotational forces (from angular acceleration) that both affects the brain and increases the risk for minor and severe brain injuries. Mips has been scientifically proven to reduce rotational motion when implemented in a helmet by absorbing and redirecting rotational energies and forces transferred to the brain.

Virginia Tech 5 Star Rating

In collaboration with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Virginia Tech Helmet lab tests helmets using the STAR evaluation system. The impact tests evaluate a helmet's ability to reduce linear acceleration and rotational velocity of the head resulting from a range of impacts a cyclist might experience. Helmets with more stars provide a reduction in concussion risk for these impacts, with 4 and 5 star ratings being the most highly recommended. Read more.
