With over 90 years in the business, Belgium-based Lazer has been at the forefront of rider safety with a deep understanding of crash protection and helmet design that few other companies can match. Their Z1 MIPS Helmet is the result of pushing all their technologies as far as they could, producing an ultralight helmet that incorporates MIPS cutting-edge multi-directional impact protection that reduces rotational forces on the head during real-world impacts. Lazer's Advanced Rollsys® fit system surrounds your head completely to reduce pressure points, and the thumb wheel on the top of the helmet is easy to adjust on the fly and doesn't get in the way if you're rocking a long hairstyle. The location and shape of the 31 vents were tunnel-tested to ensure they keep the maximum amount of air flowing to keep you cool, and should the worst happen, Lazer's Rigidity Brace System reinforces the structure with internal framework for extra protection in a multi-impact crash.
Create two helmets in one with the addition of Lazer's Z1-specific aeroshell (sold separately), which simply snaps into place to protect vented areas from the elements.
Available in multiple colors. Claimed weight is 275 g (size small).

Great helmet, worth the investment
by Golfwheels
Daily Commuter
Chicago, IL
I spent a lot of years on a budget buying cheaper helmets that fit moderately well. None of them were bad helmets but being a bike commuter, 15-20 miles each way year round I decided it was worth investing in a quality helmet. I realized after a little thought that the helmet is the only thing that might stand in the way of a serious injury and just a bad day. I saw this one on sale with Western Bike works and decided to get one. I rarely buy equipment like this without trying it on first but made an exception and I'm glad I did. The fit and adjustment feature are perfect for my oddly shaped head and fit perfectly, in the summer or with a balaclava under it. The construction seems solid and I have complete confidence that if I had an accident this would protect me. It's also very light and has no problem keeping my head ventilated and cool in the summer. Love it.

A solid 5-star rating for the best helmet out there.

When it became time to purchased a new helmet there was no decision, ... it was going be a Lazer Z1 in the cool hi-vis yellow. It's down to being comfortable, protected and being seen.

Love this helmet
by Badger

I love the Lazer helmets and this is my third one. Was pleased that this one has the MIPS shell protection. Got a size medium, fits perfetly. Love the top adjuster to make it tight and also the fact my pony-tail can go through the opening. I like the Z1 model and as others have indicated, the front doesn't impact my vision like some others.

Comfortable and light weight helmet with GREAT safety reviews
by Chuck W.

I road bike for 1.25 hours (20+ miles) every other day as part of my workout regime. The helmet is comfortable and lightweight to the point that you don't even know it is there. And, the helmet has MIPS; Multi-directional Impact Protection System. Having gone done before I know how important it is to have a quality helmet.

Great MIPS helmet!
by Anonymous

I initially bought a different brand of MIPS helmet which I didn't like and returned. This one fits great and is really nice looking. The MIPS insert will make it feel slightly different than a conventional helmet, but was no issue. Very nice helmet and an added benefit of being even safer.

This is my second Z1. My first one was damaged in a crash. I think it saved my life or, at minimum, a severe head injury.

Super light and easy to get the fit perfect. I forget that I am wearing a helmet. I added the additional light to it for safety.

For the Heat
by QaMic

light, positionally stable, and comfortably accommodates a variety of eyewear. Ratcheting system not as precise as Giro or Bell MIPS'. Base sizing seems slightly different. Purchased because of the pony-tail feature which allows me to tie a wetted headband, with the ends laying upon my neck. The tie stays in place and the ends are re-wetted for coolness. It is my go-to hot weather helment and has been on my head since late May.

The helmet fits well and is lower profile, less mushroom-y than a typical helmet. I hope I don't get a chance to weigh in on how well it protects in a crash.

Great fit, easy to adjust, piece of mind

After an unfavorable encounter with a car, I found myself hyper focused on safety. I have been a Giro guy for the last 5 years, but wanted to try something different that included MIPS. Also, I wanted to try the fit system in the Lazar helmets (a buddy raves about it, so why not). Im very happy with the helmet. As always, it pays to check fit in the store.

Another great helmet from Lazer!! it has all of othe great features from Lazer including the Rollsys tighting system. The Z1 has plenty of vents and I havent had a problem with it in Houston's heat. I normally wear a L from Lazer with the Rollsys set on the tightest setting but because of the MIPS the helmets tends to feel a size smaller so if you are in between I would Size up

I have a pretty small head and often end up looking like I've got a mushroom on my head when I wear a helmetbut not the Z1. Fits snug but not too tight.
