Where it fits for triathletes

The points below are our reading of the listed features, not test results.

  • Aero road helmet. Smith sells it as a race helmet with an aerodynamic profile. Tredz gives no wind tunnel numbers, so we cannot say how it compares with a dedicated time trial shell.
  • Three prices. The same helmet is listed at three prices by colour, so check the colour before you pay the higher one.
  • Sizing. Adjacent sizes share a boundary on the Smith size chart (59 cm sits in both M and L), so measure your head first.
