FOX SPEEDFRAME RS MIPS HELEMT MATT BLACK MEDIUM
The Ultimate Expression of Trail Safety.
The Fox Speedframe RS represents the absolute top-tier of the Speedframe range, taking the 5-star Virginia Tech safety rating of the Pro model and adding even more sophisticated fit and protection technology. This RS (Race Spec) version is designed for riders who demand the most advanced helmet architecture available. The Matte Black finish provides a sharp, stealthy look that integrates seamlessly with any high-end MTB kit.
Key upgrades in the RS model include the MIPS® Integra Split system, which sandwiches the rotational protection layer between two layers of EPS foam for a cleaner, more comfortable interior. It also features an integrated Boreas ventilation system and a premium BOA® Fit System for micro-adjustable tension, ensuring the helmet remains rock-solid even on the most violent technical descents.
Key Features
MIPS® Integra Split: A cutting-edge safety design that integrates the rotational protection layer directly into the helmet’s foam, reducing friction and enhancing overall comfort.
BOA® Fit System: Provides 360-degree micro-adjustability, allowing you to dial in the exact tension required for a secure, "set-and-forget" fit.
Multi-Density Varizorb™ EPS: Uses multiple layers of foam to absorb and dissipate impact energy across a broader surface area.
Fidlock® SNAP Magnetic Buckle: Allows for one-handed operation of the chin strap, even while wearing heavy winter or enduro gloves.
3-Position Adjustable Visor: Specifically shaped to allow for easy goggle storage underneath when you're climbing or taking a break.
Ionic+® Antimicrobial Liner: High-performance internal padding that actively manages sweat and prevents odor build-up over long riding seasons.

✅ Why This IS For You
Maximum Protection Seekers: If you want the most advanced rotational impact technology currently available in an open-face helmet.
Fit Enthusiasts: Perfect for riders who struggle with "hot spots" or helmet wobble; the BOA® system provides a more precise fit than standard click-wheels.
Enduro Racers: Ideal for those who need a helmet that breathes exceptionally well during transfer stages but offers World-Class security for the timed descents.
❌ Why This May NOT be for you
Value-Focused Riders: The RS is a premium, flagship helmet; if you are looking for similar safety at a lower price point, the Fox Speedframe Pro offers incredible performance for less.
Ultra-Lightweight XC: This helmet is built for durability and protection; pure XC racers might find it slightly heavier than a dedicated, minimalist cross-country lid.
BFC Pro Tip
The MIPS® Integra Split in the Speedframe RS is one of the quietest systems on the market, eliminating the "creaking" often heard in older MIPS helmets. To get the most out of the BOA® dial, make sure you adjust the rear cradle height before tightening the dial—this ensures the helmet sits low enough on the back of your head to offer maximum coverage and stability. Also, keep the magnetic Fidlock buckle clean; a quick wipe after a muddy ride ensures it snaps shut perfectly every time.
