Great Midrange Mips Helmet
I stumbled across the Syntax while searching for a replacement for my Giro Revel. The Revel is not a bad budget helmet, but I'm riding farther and faster. I know Mips is debatable but it became part of my search. The Syntax is a great midrange unit. It's smaller than most helmets I've tried, comfortable on my bald head, fits, and is well ventilated. My photos are on 12x12 floor tiles. Noticeable differences over budget are: foam density, interior padding, the straps are similar but the dual adjustment retention system is better, and it sits around my head and not just "over" it. If I must gripe, there was glue in/around some of the vents, and there is not glasses storage. The subdued colors, branding, and texture will match any kit in my closet. I'm very satisfied. I'll update after a full season on the road. Update: Glasses will fit or not fit based on design. My Siroko K3S fit securely. After almost 2k miles it's still great. The small loops on the rear have reflectors on them. I never noticed.
