KOROYD® & Mips® The Smith Forefront 3 mountain bike helmet has your back (and front, and sides) thanks to Mips® and complete KOROYD® impact protection.
Bold Design Next-level protection. Bold design. Updated Airflow. The all-new Forefront 3 Mountain Bike Helmet is all you could want and more.
Eyewear Integration The visor adjusts for easy goggle storage between laps, and you can slide your glasses for secure storage on the front or back.
From flowy single track to technical descents, the Smith Forefront 3 Mountain Bike Helmet has your back (and front and sides) more than ever thanks to a complete internal injected roll cage, extended back coverage and a Mips® Safety System that's integrated directly into the helmet padding for more comfort. Add venting that increases airflow by 25 percent, a micro-adjustable BOA® Fit System and complete KOROYD® coverage, and you have a helmet that's as comfortable as it is loaded with cutting-edge design and impact protection. And when you start to sweat as you climb or prepare to drop in on a descent, you can count on the 20 vents plus our AirEvac™ ventilation to keep your sunglasses or goggles fog-free. The visor adjusts for easy goggle storage between laps, and you can slide your sunglasses into the shell for secure storage on the front or back.
