Product Info

Think all helmets look the same? Revolt from helmet lameness with the Red Mutiny Helmet. Instead of external vents, air flows up and through the Mutiny Helmet as you ride. The adjustable, internal system allows for a clean, stealth design. This Red helmet's visor is not only stylish—it helps prevent the dreaded gaper look. The Mutiny Helmet is light too, so you won't feel like you're trying to ride with a bowling ball strapped to your head. If you want to take the Mutiny to the skate park, feel free. Just remove the earpads and goggle clip.

Summary:

Great all-around helmet for most riding.

Review:

I've worn RED's HI-Fi for the last couple of seasons, but picked up the Mutiny this year when shopping for a new helmet. Overall I've been very happy with the helmet, but it does get pretty hot on warm days.

I love the looks of the Mutiny, it's super low-profile and clean looking. Definitely copies the Bern look, but I think it's way better than their helmet. Fit is almost identical to the Hi-Fi, but maybe a tad less padded. It's just a little heavier than the Hi-Fi, but still super light, Red definitely knows their stuff when it comes to weight reduction.

The only thing I don't like about the Mutiny is the lack of venting. When I'm hiking on warm days I often have to take the Mutiny off because it just doesn't let heat out. It's fine when you're riding, because there is some venting that pushes air through the inside of the helmet, but that doesn't work when you're moving slow.
