The MET Parachute MCR is not just a helmet—it’s a modular masterpiece engineered for the evolving needs of modern mountain biking. Whether you’re an enduro racer, an aggressive trail explorer, or an e-MTB adventurer, this convertible full-face helmet redefines what versatility and protection truly mean on the dirt.
Crafted with precision and loaded with cutting-edge safety features, the Parachute MCR (Magnetic Chinbar Release) is MET’s most advanced helmet to date—designed to adapt instantly to terrain, intensity, and style.
Magnetic Chinbar Release (MCR) – Instant Transformation
At the core of the Parachute MCR is the game-changing Magnetic Chinbar Release mechanism. Developed in collaboration with Fidlock®, the MCR system allows riders to convert from a full-face configuration to an open-face trail helmet in a matter of seconds—no tools required, no fumbling. The magnetic locking system delivers a secure snap-fit and effortless operation, even with gloves on, ensuring a seamless transition between aggressive descents and high-exertion climbs.
MIPS® Brain Protection System – Enhanced Safety on All Fronts
Safety is the soul of the Parachute MCR. Featuring the MIPS® (Multi-directional Impact Protection System), the helmet is designed to reduce the rotational forces transmitted to the brain during oblique impacts. This low-friction layer between the EPS liner and the rider’s head allows the helmet to slide relative to the head, helping to redirect damaging rotational motion.
In addition, the Parachute MCR meets rigorous ASTM safety standards for downhill use, giving you confidence to push your limits on technical descents, jumps, and rocky terrain.
Engineered for Fit, Function & Flow
The helmet’s Safe-T Orbit Fit System provides 360° adjustability and vertical tuning to ensure a snug, customized fit for all head shapes. Lightweight and ponytail-compatible, it offers maximum comfort without pressure points. The integrated Fidlock® magnetic buckle simplifies fastening and unfastening, even with one hand.
The adjustable visor, made of flexible, shatter-resistant material, accommodates both goggles and glasses, while the integrated goggle clip and camera mount compatibility take care of your gear essentials.
Ventilation for Every Condition
Designed for riders who never back down from big climbs or long rides, the Parachute MCR features an intelligent ventilation layout. With 21 ventilation ports, including brow vents and internal air channels, it promotes superior airflow, heat dissipation, and all-day breathability—whether you’re grinding uphill in open-face mode or ripping downhill fully enclosed.
Premium Comfort with High-Performance Materials
The interior of the helmet boasts hand-washable padding that is optimized for comfort and stability. Removable cheek pads provide a snug fit in full-face mode and enhance breathability when removed for trail sessions. Every touchpoint, from the anti-pinch buckle to the moisture-wicking liners, has been considered for long-ride satisfaction.
