Smith helmets combine innovation, protection and performance, trusted by riders across the world for their advanced safety and premium design. Founded in 1965 in Sun Valley, Idaho, Smith began by creating the world’s first snow goggle with a sealed thermal lens and breathable vent foam – a revolutionary moment that set the tone for decades of innovation in sports protection. Today, Smith is recognised globally for its leading helmet and eyewear technology, delivering cutting-edge safety features and all-day comfort for mountain, gravel and road cyclists alike.
At Wheelbase, the Smith helmet range covers every rider and every terrain. For mountain bikers, models such as the Smith Mainline, Payroll and Engage deliver uncompromising performance on technical trails and enduro descents. The Mainline is a full-face MTB helmet built for downhill and enduro racing, offering MIPS® and Koroyd® impact protection for maximum safety without sacrificing ventilation. The Payroll brings a sleek, open-face design for aggressive trail riders who demand lightweight coverage and airflow on long climbs. The Engage rounds out the lineup with an accessible, trail-ready helmet that balances comfort, fit and protection, ideal for riders tackling mixed terrain or progressing their off-road skills.
For road and gravel cyclists, Smith’s Network, Persist and Triad helmets are designed for speed, comfort and versatility. The Network combines aerodynamics and ventilation with a modern design that suits endurance rides, fast commutes and sportive events. The Persist delivers premium safety and clean aesthetics at a more accessible price, perfect for riders who want Smith’s renowned protection and fit without compromise. The Triad, blending road speed and gravel durability, is built for performance beyond tarmac – ideal for mixed-surface adventures where ventilation, stability and style are key.
Smith’s global reputation is built on constant innovation and rider-focused engineering. Their signature Koroyd® energy-absorbing layer improves impact protection and ventilation, while MIPS® technology reduces rotational forces during crashes – both essential in keeping riders safer on every ride. Every helmet is developed with input from professional athletes, ensuring that the technology used at the highest level benefits everyday riders too.
