About the Product
Boast-worthy feature on the Switchblade Mips is the Roc Loc Air DH fit system, which has a bumper around the dial to prevent accidental adjustments if your helmet contacts your backpack or neck brace - all while keeping you cool.
It's called all-mountain riding for a reason. With its removable chin bar, the Super 3R adapts to every trail riding situation - from long, steep climbs to all-out descents.
