Difference between road bike helmet and mountain bike helmet

The difference between them lies in the different design structure and ventilation performance.

1, with different design structures: road bike helmets are usually compact and lightweight to reduce wind resistance and provide better speed and handling performance. The design of mountain bike helmet pays more attention to the protection of the head, and at the same time, it should take into account the greater vision and durability required for mountain riding.

2. Different ventilation performance: Road bike helmets generally need better ventilation performance to keep the rider's comfort and cooling effect when riding at high speed, so there are usually more vent designs. However, mountain bike helmets need better protection performance and weaker ventilation performance than road bike helmets to provide better impact resistance and coverage area.
