I guess this is the second generation of their MTB lid. http://reviews.mtbr.com/interbike-2014-smith-overtake-helmet-with-mips-technology

Cool. Hope they sell it with a more subdued color scheme.

wow, very competitive in terms of weight.

Smith makes good ski helmets too.

Why do I cringe at the $250 price tag? That shouldn't be a logical response given the obvious benefit.

I agree Chinook. I cringe, and think why do I put a price on my health.

the white one is the road/cross country version, the black one is the MTB Enduro style which I've been using for a few months, LOVE that helmet, super comfy, super light, ventilates well, and another thing which you would not think about, is if you end up in the rain, you head remains surprisingly dry, seems that the water does not go through the Koroyd honeycomb looking material
saw the road version at interbike, now I want one.
The price tag is a bit much, 250.00, they were 220.00 when they came out, but that's close to about what you would pay for a new Giro, Spez, Catlike, or Uvex these days
these things are sooooo popular, our Smith rep has been out for several months
