I do both road and mountain biking and really like the Giro Atmos. Is this suitable for moutainbiking?

Question

If not, any suggestions on what to look for? thanks

Answer 1

All helmets conform to the same safety standards.  There are only styling differences between "road" and "mtb" helmets.  Most "mtb" helmets have a little sun visor while "road" helmets do not.  Personally, I don't like the sun visors.  I've never had one that stayed permantly affixed.   So I always buy "road" helmets regardless of whether I intend to use it on the road or in the woods.  My advice is buy what you like and is comfortable.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

I've always used the same helmets for both.   One of mine has the little sun visor, which I guess makes it an "MTB" helmet.   I like the visor.
