Unclipped cheek pad

"Overall comfortable helmet, I bought a large based off the size guide and my measurements and it seems to fit well however on one side the cheek pad part that snaps in regularly pops out. The cheek pad is connected in other areas so it remains attached in the helmet but is just loose in that one area and stays put from the pressure of my face. It's only annoying when putting the helmet on otherwise it stays in place."

New Mountain Helmet

"I like my new helmet. The quick chin strap latch, more insulation around the goggle hole, and quieter design with no ear hole in the outer shell are all improvements. However, I am still struggling with the little red snaps that hold the padding in place by my chin. I don't think any popped loose during my last ride so maybe it will be okay, but I would prefer if you make them stronger."

Helmet

"Not overly impressed helmet came and the inside doesn’t snap properly at all."

MICHAEL M. (1/5)

Decent helmet for the price.

"Contrary to the 509 website information, this helmet does not fit the ODT Chips 2. 0 helmet speakers. This is my 3rd attempt to fit the speakers I purchased for snowmobiling into a 509 helmet that the website said was compatible. The R3L and R4 also do not fit the ODT Chips Bluetooth helmet speakers. Additionally, my helmet did not come with instructions on how to remove the liner, etc. And if you want to use it without the face covering liner, you will need a different helmet liner that is sold separately. The Helmet is stylish, decently light weight, and works well for average temperatures trail riding (sub zero temperatures you will want a heated shield helmet like the R3L). I would recommend the helmet, but you may find some contradictions from the information on the 509 website."

Max W. (5/5)

This helmet has a lot

"This helmet has a lot of airflow through it so if you're looking for a warm helmet this is not the one"

Jeff D. (5/5)

New Helmet

"Bought this for my kid because I have one as well. We both love the helmet."

Tyler H. (5/5)

Very cold

"I have had a 509 Tactical in the past and this helmet is extremely cold combined with x7 TR goggles. Air enters above the googles along with both sides."

"Like the helmet. Wish came with interchangeable face pieces like the prior did."

Q&A

I’ve been experiencing fogging with this helmet and my Sinister X7 TR goggles. Could you recommend which balaclava works best, or provide any suggestions to help reduce goggle fogging during trail riding?
Hey Elisabeth, start by ensuring there is proper airflow - try opening the bottom vents, make sure the surrounding goggle vent foam is free of obstruction, and the breathbox is fitted correctly over the mouth and not directing breath back. In terms of balaclavas, any of our balaclavas do the trick, but I recommend the [FZN Merino Balaclava](https://ride509.com/collections/snow-balaclavas/products/fzn-merino-balaclava) as that Merino.
Does this helmet work in the summer as well?
Hey John, while our helmets are typically purpose-built for that specific riding season, technically yes - you can run this helmet in the summer. I would recommend removing the VEES liner and swapping for the traditional helmet liner that is included in the box as the VEES can get pretty hot.
Can a breath box be used with this helmet?
Hey Ryan, apologies for the delay here but yes, a breath box can be used with this helmet! You can find it on our website at [https://ride509.com/products/breathbox-for-tactical-2-0-helmet](https://ride509.com/products/breathbox-for-tactical-2-0-helmet).
What goggles fit the best with this helmet?
Hey Jordan, any of our goggles would be a perfect fit with this helmet, so it all depends on your personal preference for lens shape. I would recommend the [Sinister X7 TR Goggle](https://ride509.com/products/sinister-x7-tr-goggle) as it has a thicker face foam that filters out snow dust from the frame vents for optimal airflow control while maintaining a perfect seal to keep out snow and wind.
