Why We Like The Sweet Protection Falconer Aero 2Vi MIPS Helmet
To keep safety up and drag down, we clip into the Sweet Protection Falconer Aero 2Vi MIPS Helmet before rolling out. The 4-piece shell construction is ultralight, aerodynamic, and comfy to give us high-tech protection that won't strain our neck or our pace, while the strategically placed air channels pull through a continuous cooling breeze where we need it most, ensuring we don't overheat on grueling climbs. When the clouds hide the sun, we stow our sunnies in the integrated grippers and pop on the vent covers for added protection from the drizzle.

Great helmet but color not as depicted

- M/L
Bought this model because rated VERY high on Virginia Tech Helmet Rating website, and finally went on sale (happy for that!). I returned the "Dusk" color helmet because it is not the golden color as shown in photos but is paler, cooler, less rich/saturated. Color matters a great deal to me, always, in all spheres of life including cycling items. Bought the "Panther" one to replace, still deciding whether to keep it. (Wish I had bought the Metallic Barbera to start with but all sold out.)

Despite falling in the middle of the size range, this helmet proved to be a very snug fit and had to be returned. Do not recommend for an online purchase. Can’t fault the space age aesthetics though!

Dialed!

Just got back from a ride in this helmet and realized I hadn’t dropped a review yet! I’ve spent several months with this thing, and it’s the one on my head the most over the other options I’ve got in the garage. In short, it’s excellent. There’s nothing I would change. The fit system, while not a licensed BOA design, is a well executed one that I’ve had zero issues with, and is easy to adjust on the fly when I’ve realized it isn’t tight enough and my glasses start smacking off the underside of the brim. I LOVE the aero magnetic clippy vent covers, not so much for the aero benefits, but because this makes it a true year-round helmet! I actually started my ride in the cold today, and as it (and I) warmed up, I simply just reached up and popped the covers off and stuffed them in a pocket. Super easy, so adaptable. I have a 59cm circumference head right on the dot and I just barely sneak into a medium comfortably. I only snug down the ratchet a few clicks, which is how I like my helmets to fit. I still have room for a super thin cycling cap or balaclava. However, consider sizing up if you’re borderline. The fit is probably the most oval-shaped I’ve worn. I have what I would consider a normal ovalish, roundish head, and this one fits the longest and narrowest compared to my POC, Bell, Lazer, Giro, and Smith helmets. I wear a medium in all of these brands. Glasses storage is flawless, some of the best I’ve ever had in a helmet. If you’re interested in this helmet, reach out to your friendly neighborhood Gearhead and let’s get you rolling! #CompetitiveCyclistGearheads #BackcountryGearheads

Form and function working in synergy

The aesthetics initially piqued my curiosity about this helmet, but the features and functionality of this helmet are fantastic. Great for early spring riding when temperatures are still chilly and removing the vents to get some airflow as the temperatures rise makes for comfortable riding—the opportunity to be a bit more aero when riding is fun, too. I purchased the Nani colorway and the finish has some nice design details. I've loved riding in this and look forward to continuing to do so.

I really like the helmet for the features like removable air panels, fidlock magnetic strap, aero design......but it ends there. Let me explain. From day one after buying this helmet which let me say I did plenty of homework on my next aero helmet and it came down to this one and the Rudy Nytron with the Ekoi AR14 close behind. I went with the Sweet Protection LE version for color visibility. Was impressed by look and feel upon arrival but immediately noticed the rear occigrip did not tighten and hold, rather as soon as you dialed it in and let go of the dial wheel it slipped every time! Not good! So eventually contacted the manufacturer and fairly prompt response and they stated they would ship me a new occigrip system to replace the defective one. Has never arrived! Followup took days for response and their only defense ismit comes from overseas! I get packages in about a week from even China! Not acceptable in my book as it is safety related. I will be replacing this helmet and scorching their CS whenever I can as they either did not send it or have yet to! Doesn't matter......should have been state-side easily in a month. Buyer beware if you get a defective unit as to warranty being used!

Do it All Road Helmet

Really impressed with the Sweet Protection helmets. I have a Bushwhacker for MTB, and I got this Falconer 2Vi for my gravel/road riding. Fit is great, arguable one of the best looking helmets in my opinion, and it breathes incredibly well. Best part is the aero covers. I find myself wearing it with them off primarily, but as the weather gets cold, I like being able to reduce some of the airflow to keep my head a little toastier. Highly recommend this helmet.
