About this product
The SWEET PROTECTION Falconer 2Vi MIPS is a road cycling helmet built for performance and race-oriented riders, available in Burnt Brown across three circumference sizes: 53 to 56 cm (Small/Medium), 56 to 59 cm (Medium/Large), and 59 to 61 cm (Large/X-Large). Weighing just 283g, its polycarbonate shell uses in-mold construction to spread impact forces while keeping overall weight low. The inner EPS liner incorporates MIPS Aire Node technology, which uses a helmet-specific liner to reduce rotational forces transmitted to the brain during a fall. Fit is managed by the 360 Occigrip system, offering three height settings and 26 micro-adjustments for a precise, personalized feel. STACC ventilation channels airflow over the superficial temporal arteries for targeted cooling, while a wider rear opening accommodates long hair. Dual glasses-temple slots with TPU grippers secure sunglasses when not in use, and moisture-wicking front padding is removable for easy washing. The helmet meets CPSC 1203 and EN 1078: 2012+A1: 2013 safety standards.

What people are saying
Reviewers consistently praise the Falconer 2Vi MIPS for its strong safety credentials, earning a top Virginia Tech 5-star rating, and for its standout sunglasses storage, which multiple testers call the best in class. The STACC ventilation system, lightweight feel, comfortable 360-degree fit system, and understated styling are also recurring highlights. The integrated MIPS Air liner, which replaces the older bulky yellow liner, is noted as a welcome improvement. The most common criticism is the premium price point, which some feel demands careful consideration relative to competitors. A few users also note the helmet runs narrower than expected, which may not suit all head shapes.
