Meet the MET Terranova — a trail-specific mountain bike helmet that blends comfort, coverage, and modern performance into a sleek half-shell form. Built for riders who demand more from their gear, the Terranova is purpose-engineered for technical trail and e-MTB adventures, where control, protection, and ventilation go hand in hand.
Drawing design inspiration and construction cues from the award-winning MET Roam, the Terranova elevates the expectations of a trail helmet. It delivers enhanced head coverage for greater protection — especially in the occipital and temporal regions — while maintaining a light, breathable feel that's crucial for all-day exploration.
Trail-Tuned Construction
At its core, the MET Terranova features a durable in-mold polycarbonate shell bonded to an EPS liner, creating a robust, lightweight structure that effectively dissipates impact forces. This in-mold design allows for precise shaping of vents and air channels, keeping you cooler on sustained climbs and faster descents.
But what really sets the Terranova apart is its extended head coverage, specifically engineered to better protect against the unpredictable impacts of trail riding. Whether you’re ducking under branches, navigating rocky switchbacks, or hammering through technical descents on an e-MTB, the helmet has your head — quite literally — covered.
Comfort That Moves With You
Comfort is where the MET Terranova truly excels. Built on the ergonomic platform of the Roam, it features the Safe-T DUO Fit System, allowing for a secure 360-degree wrap and vertical adjustment to fine-tune the fit. It's also ponytail-compatible, catering to a wide range of riders.
Embedded strap anchors and the adjustable cam divider ensure the straps sit flush and comfortably, without fuss. No flapping. No pinching. Just a snug, reliable fit that inspires confidence even on the most demanding terrain.
Hand-washable interior comfort pads enhance moisture management and hygiene — crucial for long, sweaty trail rides. The padding layout is cleverly mapped to avoid pressure points, delivering plushness where you want it and airflow where you need it.
Airflow Meets Aggression
The Terranova’s internal structure includes air-channeling throughout the EPS liner, designed to direct cool air in and warm air out efficiently. This keeps your head from overheating on warmer days or extended climbs. Combined with the adjustable visor made from flexible material, it maintains a balance between aggressive styling and function — shielding you from sun and debris without interfering with your field of vision.
The visor is also goggle-friendly, making the Terranova a smart choice for riders who like to push the limits with a full-face feel but prefer the freedom and breathability of a half-shell.
Ready for Every Trail, Every Ride
Whether you're carving through wooded singletrack, navigating rocky alpine routes, or powering up trails on an e-MTB, the MET Terranova keeps pace with your ambition. It’s CE, AS/NZS, and US certified, passing multiple international safety standards and offering confidence across continents.
Its refined aesthetic and functional features make it more than just a helmet — it's a trusted companion for the adventurous rider who values coverage without compromise.
