The Rivale MIPS helmet is an evolution on the outside design and a revolution on the inside shape.

The fit is unparalleled and thanks to its new Safe-T Upsilon retention system the helmet is stable on the head.

The 360° head belt ensures that there will be no pressure points on the skull and it’s easy to use vertical adjustment allows you an individual fit.

More Efficient

The Rivale MIPS helmet has the singular MET signature style – especially the NACA Vent built-in with lower and tube-shaped profile which makes it more aerodynamic than its predecessor.

The front of the helmet is designed with wider and longer vents which improve the ventilation and they can also serve for securely docking sunglasses.
