Rider Safety is Trek’s Bottom Line
How it Works
What is Trek doing for Helmet Testing?
“Trek has been designing helmets for over 30 years, since safety standards were last updated. In that time, we were one of the first major bike brands to adopt slip liners, partnering with MIPS, and the first to launch an innovative new way to help reduce rotational forces transmitted to the brain with WaveCel. Trek continues to push the boundaries of helmet testing with its Crash Reconstruction Data Research. Our long-standing Crash Replacement Guarantee benefits the consumer and helps us collect helmet impact data including impact locations, volume, centricity, scratch length, and more to test at energies related to real world scenarios. This helps us create better test methods and is something unique that Trek brings to the industry. We share our data and findings at global helmet conferences to lead conversations in helmet safety for cycling. The results of this testing program expand our expertise for each new helmet we produce.”

Review
Expect a review of this product in the future. Photos are of our real-world sample, thank you to Trek / Bontrager.
Please when you review, pay attention to the ventilation and coolness (temp. wise) of the helmet. Honestly, that’s the first priority for me in a helmet. I’ve heard the wave cell helmets tend to be hot.
I always wear a cap beneath my helmet so I might be passing this along to one of my local reviewers. Many thanks for the insightful suggestion.
Your brain should be your first priority
