Good looking, great quality helmet.I love this helmet. I had this in a different colour already but this makes for a nice alternative. It’s super comfortable and well made and well ventilated. A number of friends all comment on how good the Forefront 2 looks and a couple have even bought it. The Rapha colourway (I have the black and olive version with orange writing) is subtle but distinctive. I only wish there were more Rapha items in the olive colour left.
For info, I had a bad tumble on the MTB last August wearing my Forefront 2 and it definitely saved my noggin - it works well and the MIPS liner is great.

Gravel LidI bought this for use on the gravel bike and love it. Removed the peak to loose the full mtb look - very light and comfy, and looks great. No more expensive than the same model direct from smith.

Rapha + Smith ForefrontGreat fit, looks cool! Strap clips could be better as they occasionally come loose. A little on the pricey side but also in all a great helmet.

Perfect!I love this helmet, use it for xc rides and some races. Feel very safe, it fits perfect, for me size small (with other helmets M), a little heavy but I feel it only after many hours. The only limit is about fixing the glasses onto the helmet but it's not impossible. Not cheap but absolutely worth the cost and stunning look.

Awesome bit of kit!A really comfortable helmet that even makes me look good (subjective I know!) Nice design, lots of adjustment and good protection all over. The green is a really sweet look.

You get what you pay forA very stylish helmet but also a very safe one too. It looks the business and has all the relevant safety aspects from a modern MTB lid. I did feel a slight pinch in the temples but moved the brow pad up a couple of mm and this seemed to cure the issue. This helmet is expensive but in my opinion how much of a price do you put on your own personal safety?

Quality and subtle styling is awesome.Quality and style is awesome. My head size lies between a Small and Medium, and so I went with the small. The fit was a little tight due to the thick padding on the temple, so I replaced the original padding with a thinner set from a different helmet and it now fits great. A medium would likely have been too loose so happy I stuck with the small.

Nice helmet but fragile/faulty plastic adjustersExcited about the helmet’s design and features. However, after only three times using it the plastic adjuster for the nylon straps has already fallen apart (despite not adjusting the straps) and seems very fragile. Have never experienced similar problems with other helmets.
