Full-face MTB helmets are designed for the rowdiest days on the hill — the laps where the trails are steep, the speed is high and the commitment is real. With extended coverage, chin-bar protection and modern airflow systems, today’s full-face lids balance gravity-ready safety with all-day comfort.
Made for riders who push the terrain
These helmets are for riders who live for enduro stages, downhill runs and bike-park days. If your riding blends technical features, bigger drops, or high-speed lines, a full-face lid gives you the confidence to commit. Whether you’re progressing your skills or already chasing PRs, this is the kind of protection that lets you go all-in.
What to look for in a full-face MTB helmet
- Safety & coverage: full-face lids offer chin-bar protection, extended rear coverage and reinforced shells designed for gravity-focused riding.
- Fit & comfort: look for secure buckle systems, deep padding and stable retention that stays put on rough terrain. Ventilation is key if you’re climbing between stages.
- Protection tech: many models include MIPS technology to help reduce rotational forces in a crash.
