Good true to size the strap is not loose even if you're fast easy to remove because of the magnet i love the helmet

Lightweight, comfortable, good ventilation, easy magnet type clip. Got it at in a sale, so good value too.

100% approved

My old helmet expired after 4 years, so I figured I'd try something different. I'm glad I got this one. It has a fresh look and fits great. The Smart Shock is nice compared to MIPS because it doesn't pull my precious mullet hairs when I take it off. My wraparounds fit nice on the back, but I'm not sure I'd ride with them there. It feels as nice as a helmet I have that cost twice as much.

A helmet that vents well!!!

For my head at least the helmet is comfy. I’ll occasionally, like every maybe 3rd ride, get a little hot spot from one of the bumpers, but all I have to do is just reach up and bump the helmet a little bit and it goes away. This helmet vents so well though that it doesn’t bother me one bit. I’ve been wearing helmets for years from Troy Lee, and Fox that don’t vent one molecule of hot air off my head and to me that’s brutally uncomfortable. The Altec reminds me of good venting Giro helmets before MIPS liners restricted airflow over your noggin. I got the fidlock version and it’s ok, I never had any problems with plain old buckles so that’s a wash, but something else I do like is the visor, it’s just my personal preference but it’s just the right length and width to ... MoreFor my head at least the helmet is comfy.

The Fox visor didn’t do anything and the Troy Lee visor was too long and blocked my vision, especially going downhill. I’m probably going to buy another helmet and store it in a dark room in case 100% stops making it. Again, it’s a personal preference thing but I really love how well this helmet vents. Ps. My head is 57.5cm, I bought a S/M and it fits great

Fits great and excellent protection. Great price!

This is the 3rd 100% helmet I’ve bought in the last year. I tried it on at my lbs and it fit really nice and comfy. I like that it’s not a huge bulky fit. The visor is set a little low in my opinion but you can adjust the fit to get it a little higher. The buckle is super easy to take on and off. I bought this one because I crashed and broke my last helmet.

Good helmet - great catch and very comfortable

The helmet is excellent. It’s my second one after a stack. The magnetic catch is the best in class and the helmet is really comfortable for my head shape

Great helmet

This fits so much better than previous helmets and had great adjustment.

Perfect Fit & Looks!!

Purchased this helmet after riding TLD A2 Mips Med/Lg, as well as the Fox Proframe in large for the past couple years. The TLD was snug in Med/Lg, and the XL was way too big. The Fox fit was much better, but the helmet sat low & rattled against my Oakley glasses. The 100% Altec is exactly in the middle of these, perfect fit & perfect form, works great with all of my riding glasses, and the design is fire! 5 Stars!

Very Pleased - good price

Great helmet, fits well - doesn’t look like a bucket! Safety features are good, comfortable and I really like the magnetic clip.

try it on first!

I ordered this helmet and was hoping to like it based on other reviews. However, the type of suspension inside the helmet caused it to be uncomfortable. There are little blue button-looking things along the inside liner and they protrude a bit and hurt my scalp. I keep my hair very short so I felt them even when the helmet was just resting on my head! I would imagine when riding they would really be annoying when hitting every little bump. I returned this product.
