It’s hard to argue with a company bringing better, lightweight head protection down in price. And that’s exactly what the newest Urge Trailhead mountain bike helmet has to offer. More occipital coverage, good venting, light in-mold construction & dial closure for just 59€.
Urge Trailhead affordable mountain bike helmet
The Trailhead is an advanced trail rider’s helmet at beginner mountain biker pricing. The details are pretty straight forward on the new helmet. At just 288g for a medium its weight is competitive.
It features extended coverage in the rear to cover more of the base of your head in a crash and uses industry standard in-mold construction with a polycarbonate shell over EPS foam to absorb impact.
The Trailhead has 18 vents – five forward facing and the rest pulling heat back away from your head.
It will comes in two sizes – S/M & L/XL – to fit heads from about 54-60cm around.
The new helmet includes a removable, clip-on molded plastic visor with Urge’s trademark hole in the middle.
The same dial adjust ring retention system used on their more pricey helmets handles a secure fit.
At just 59€ it substantially cuts both weight & price off of their next up SeriAll in-mold trail helmet.
The Trailhead will come in four colors – white, black, gray & green – and be available to purchase direct from Urge starting in November 2017.
