Why Choose Smith Optics for Cycling?
Smith Optics is a pioneer in innovative gear for athletes. For cyclists, this translates to helmets and eyewear that provide uncompromising protection, clarity, and style. Smith's advanced technologies are designed to handle the unique demands of mountain biking and e-bike riding.
Smith Bike Helmets: KOROYD & MIPS
Smith is famous for its bike helmets. Many models, like the popular Forefront, feature a unique KOROYD core. This honeycomb-like structure provides superior impact absorption and ventilation compared to traditional foam. When combined with a MIPS liner for rotational impact protection, Smith bike helmets offer some of the best safety technology on the market.
Smith ChromaPop Sunglasses & Goggles
Clarity is safety. Smith's ChromaPop lens technology is a game-changer. It filters specific light wavelengths to boost natural color and enhance definition. For a mountain biker, this means you can see roots, rocks, and trail textures with incredible detail, allowing you to choose your line faster. This technology is available in their popular cycling sunglasses (like the Wildcat) and their full-coverage MTB goggles.
Eyewear and Helmets: The Perfect Integration
One of the best reasons to be in the Smith ecosystem is integration. Smith cycling sunglasses and goggles are designed to fit perfectly with Smith helmets. This "AirEvac" system helps pull air through the eyewear and out the helmet's vents, preventing fogging even on hot, slow climbs.
