## Description

Smith Optics Persist MIPS Road Cycling Helmet - White/Cement, Large

Review: Great helmet. - I've tried many helmets $100--$300 and I have owned many helmets as a long time ironman triathlete. This one fits perfectly and i don't even notice it when worn because of great ventilation, comfort, and low weight. It's also designed with MIPS safety. Very good job on this helmet Smith.
Review: So thankful for my Persist - I love the fit of this helmet. More importantly, 2 dogs bolted from behind a car while I was clipping along on my road bike. Was told I went over the bars when I hit one of the dogs and landed hard on the back of my head. Without a doubt, I’d be in the hospital today if it wasn’t for my Persist. Also, always wear your helmet- you never know when things go sideways. In pic you can see where the helmet cracked upon impact.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this helmet suitable for round head shapes or is it more for oval shaped?**
A: I have an oval head and it fits very well. I believe it’ll fit well. I have friends with both shapes and they use Smith helmets without any issues.

**Q: How is this helmet for somebody who has a ponytail or bun?**
A: With a ponytail, it would probably work okay. The rear strap falls just below the little "bump" in the back of the skull. You might need to swing the ponytail to one side. I would think a bun would be too large to fit under the strap unless you make it up well down on the back of the neck.

**Q: What is the difference between the 2022 and non-2022 models?**
A: A couple of years

**Q: What is the circumference of the XL?**
A: 24 3/8 for some brands

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value and comfortable.
*by J***F on September 21, 2024*

Helmets are a personal item. But this helmet fits well and the size guidance worked for me (measured my head and picked the size based on that). Very comfortable and cooler than my last helmet. I purchased white on the hope it would be cooler. Value for $ is quite good. You can spend hundred but it is not clear that it really buys much more in function/safety or comfort. Maybe style but this helmet looks fine. I would buy again.
