I’ve had the privilege of riding with the Cannondale Cypher Helmet this season. As someone who has ridden many different bike helmets and products in general, I can tell you that not all helmets are created equal. The Cypher provides coverage that over-achieves industry standards and gives an incredible amount of ventilation while keeping aerodynamics in mind.
While protection is the most important characteristic for a helmet, weight is also huge. Cannondale took this into consideration while designing the bike helmet and it is the lightest helmet I’ve ever worn. The ratcheting system used is a simple dial that works flawlessly and allows the rider to make micro-adjustments on the fly for an optimal fit. Cannondale’s Cypher is a phenomenal choice for the club rider, endurance cyclist, and the aspiring crit racer. The Cannondale Cypher helmet is a super lightweight and comfortable helmet that offers awesome ventilation and superb and stylish protection.
Cannondale Cypher Helmet Tech Specs:

- A 3-position height adjustment allows just-right placement of the Ergo-fit EVA occipital pad and the micro-dial tension adjuster delivers a precise fit.
