Certified protection, clean aesthetic, comfortable fit, and a budget-friendly price—that’s what makes up the Align II. The standout feature of the Align II is the inclusion of the revolutionary Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS), a patented protection against "rotational violence" caused by angled impacts. When including MIPS, we didn’t give anything up to comfort—the Align II includes the Headset SX dial fit system for easy fit adjustment, our 4th Dimension Cooling System for incredible ventilation, and an easy one-size fit system. If you’re on the quest for a feature-rich helmet that leaves some jingle jangle in your pocket, the Align II is for you.

Product Notes:

• The MIPS system is a low-friction layer that allows a sliding motion of 10 to 15mm in all directions. Studies indicate that this reduces some of the rotational forces transmitted to the brain during angled impacts.
• Easily-adjustable, one-size Headset SX fit system is designed for easy and accurate fit for a wide range of head sizes. Add in a micro-adjustable dial for on-the-fly adjustability and you're ensured an easy, secure, and accurate fit.
• 4th Dimension Cooling System optimizes ventilation.
• In-molded shell improves strength and reduces weight.
• Reflective decals for increased visibility in low-light conditions.

When ripping down the trail, the last thing you need to worry about is if your helmet will protect you in a crash. Then again, you don't want to be stuck wearing a full-face on every trail ride. This is why Specialized created the Ambush Comp with ANGi—a lightweight, extended coverage helmet at a wallet-friendly price.

Starting with protection, the Ambush Comp boasts a significant amount of extended coverage and a single density foam that's been reinforced by a Composite Matrix. The reason behind this is that it manages the energy from impacts more effectively. Even with the added protection, though, it fits comfortably with our low profile and fully integrated Mindset 360 fit system. And with its five height positions, this system provides unmatched adjustment, while an integrated dial allows for on-the-fly fine-tuning. The Ambush Comp also keeps you cool with our 4th Dimension Cooling System's massive vents and exhaust ports, so you don't have to worry about overheating—even on the hottest days.

• Size M fits head circumference of 54-58 cm

Our new ANGi Crash Sensor gives you and your loved ones peace of mind like never before—when combined with our iOS or Android app, the sensor will detect a crash and send a text message to specified contacts in your phone. It also syncs with our app and STRAVA® to provide GPS-based activity tracking.

Finally, we included a micro-indexing visor that quickly adjusts positions and has plenty of room for goggle storage. Combined, these features put the Ambush Comp well in front of the competition.

The ARS Fit System enables progressive fit adjustment via a thumbwheel. It distributes pressure evenly around the head, eliminating hot spots and pressure points. The adjustable head basket is ponytail friendly. Eighteen vents orientated at a 15-degree angle assures maximum airflow when the helmet is in the riding position.

MIPS protection helps reduce the risk of rotational injury. A polycarbonate layer built inside the helmet keeps the foam together in the event of a crash, offering better protection from successive impacts. Sphere MIPS has been awarded the 5-Star “Best Available” protection rating from Virginia Tech.

A docking area makes eyewear storage easy and bottom-shell protection helps prevent damage to the helmet foam. The optional Aeroshell accessory protects against the helmets or offers an aerodynamic benefit when desired.

The Sphere MIPS weighs just 280 grams.

Product Notes:

• Ventilated helmet for multiple impact protection on your ride
• Advanced Rollsys System for easy fit adjustment
• Cappuccinolock compatible for innovative helmet-to-bike locking
• Lightweight at 280g for comfort and aerodynamics
